I am looking for a vanilla aftershave. More vanilla bean type smell. I would like it to be more "manly" and less teenage girl. I am mainly looking for something to pair up with Mamma Bear's "Spellbound Woods."
Anyone have suggestions on a vanilla aftershave?

Haven't smelled the soap that you mentioned, but I like Clubman Classic Vanilla. Its not straight forward vanilla, it's got a bit of musk, but it could be what you're looking for and I like it enough to say it's worth trying.
Well, I haven't tried MB Spellbound Woods, but for the manly version of "that vanilla scent," it's hard to beat good old Mennen Skin Bracer Original.
I enjoyed my sample of Tom Ford's Tobacco and Vanilla, although not enough to fork out the money for a full bottle (overpriced IMO). The Pinaud Vanilla on the other hand is great value for the money, awesome for day to day wear.
Agreed, I've found Skin Bracer to be a really nice one.
I don't get vanilla from Skin Bracer Original...mostly baby powder. As for a green vanilla scent, perhaps you could layer a green AS like Aubrey Organics Northwoods with a more vanilla scent like TSD Vanilla AS splash.
There are also a lot of vanilla EdTs that you can choose from (after using an unscented AS like witch hazel).

There is a lot of vanilla in the dry down of Skin Bracer. Another one is Raw Vanilla by Coty. It's a spicier vanilla (I prefer sweeter) but it's still pretty good. It's a pretty straight forward fragrance.
Skin Bracer and Pinaud were the two that came to my mind.

Thanks for the suggestions, now I have to wait till after the gentlemanly restraint to actually get one, but these sound good.
Paco Rabanne 1 Million aftershave has very strong vanilla tones...
