Item Description
I don't get this; a classic around for a very long time and nobody ever reviewed the stuff! Well, let me try.
Last week I had (just by accident) a very British week; got myself a Vulfix brush (not tried yet; shame on me), a Vulfix soap (and I seem to be the only one on B&B; shame on you!) and the Pashana AS.
Technically Vulfix is from the Isle of Man and therefore not British I think but I need to dig into that so when you feel insulted; mea culpa!!
Price is very reasonable; at 12 euro it is nor cheap neither expensive and overall quality is simply good.
As an alcohol based aftershave it does what any decent splash will do; when you have done the job right it will give you a warm and pleasant glow and sooth everything that was not 100%. When you made a mess out of things it will tell you; loud and clear. Nothing special here, just good.
This stuff is about scent; it is strong, but never overpowering or brutal, and it is a longstayer. So much that you could see it maybe more as an EdT than as just another AS. Don't be mistaken; once you put this on you won't get rid of it soon!
How to describe the scent? I've read about patchouly and other ingredients but for me it is opening a fresh tin of dark sweet pipe tobacco in an autumn forest with a little Indian shop nearby. I hope this makes any sense but to me this is the greatgrandfather of barbershop smells; powdery and antique but also very very good.
I guess this AS has a love or hate factor to it; I can imagine hard-core lovers for this AS since it is around for a very long time.
But this is so outspoken that there have to be hard-core haters as well!
Do you like old school/barbershop scents? Do you like Tabac AS or Shulton Old Spice?
Well, Pashana is different but give it a try !
