What's new

Every Friday is Clubman Friday

Clubman's Special Reserve, that tobacco-leather combo, is my aftershave every day. I need to order some more, as all I can find in stores here is the classic (which I love too).

For that matter, I toss on some Clubman powder as my last step in a shave.
 
Cannot wait to restart work, to try out my new fragrances I received from America. I've been off work on furlough and so I have had plenty of time on my hands to do some decanting. Fitting in with the drink theme of the latest clubman reserve range, I decanted into some bottles that wouldn't look out of place being swigged under a bridge from a brown paper bag. The US seem to use empty chilly bottles to decant into, I guess the UK contingent could reuse Worcester Sauce (or if from Yorkshire use Henderson's Relish) bottles, they even have a restrictor to ensure minimal waste.

Have some great shaves!
 
In with the Original.

Every time I see a pic or reference of the vegetal, I think I gotta give it another try...it's been over 10 years, what could possibly go wrong?
