What aftershave splash/balm did you use today?

Proraso aloe vera and vitamin E (blue) ASB

Love the scent of the blue cream and balm, and it does good stuff for my skin, too.

Aromatic with a touch of fougere, Penhaligon's Lords splash aftershave is a classic. This scent was originally created in 1911 for Percy Croft of the Croft Port Dynasty. Released to the public in the eighties with the name Lords, in 2004, the fragrance was named Douro after Portugal's famous port region. In 2009 the fragrance packaging was changed and the scent was renamed Douro Eau de Portugal." An "old-school" fragrance, it has been described as having a clean, soapy scent, elegant and restrained but warm and comfortable. There is initial citrus dominance, followed by an herbal dry bitterness. This original Lords scent is said to be richer than the modern Douro.

Top notes are lemon, lime, mandarin, bergamot, lavender, and basil; heart notes are neroli and muguet; and base notes are labdanum, oakmoss, musk, and sandalwood.

Dominica Bay Rum - Its going to be all Bay Rum all week

Wifey's not gonna like that...LOL.


Today I used PAA Al Fin.

True, however I am ever hopeful that with repeated exposure the fragrance will grow on her. I plan to take notes to determine if there are any specific bay rums that she likes or dislikes more or less intensely.

One thing I have never understood: What is it with guys slapping the shit outta themselves when they put on aftershave lol? Is it some machismo right of passage or something?

Floris Santal splash aftershave. Launched in 2002, Santal is smooth, warm, and masculine. Top notes are Sicilian bergamot and Provencal lavender; heart notes are black peppercorns, Zanzibar clove buds, and cardamom; and base notes are patchouli and tree moss. On me the scent lasts around 3 hours and is fairly close on the skin.
