Favorite Old Spice After Shave

Old Spice Lime from India (for now it's the original Shulton formula). If I could only have one AS for the rest of my life, I would be fine with this one. I love lime/citrus and it blends with the classic spice frag of Old Spice to really be something special, IMHO.

The original vintage Shulton Old Spice made back in the day.
I like the one that was made in India. I understand that they may no longer be making it.
Always start with the original scent, before you go trying other ones. Original scent is one of my go-to aftershavews.

Original... There's a lot of hype here about the Shulton formula and I do believe that it is superior but the P&G stuff all over America is good too! Old Spice is my favorite A/S.
Original for me, and I'm happy with the P&G stuff.
For less that $2 - may I suggest...go to a Family Dollar and pick up their store-brand Spice aftershave made by ViJon. It's a "knockoff" of Old Spice that IMO is better than the current P&G Old Spice a/s.
The Vi-Jon Spice smells better, but doesn't last very long. Mix the Vi-Jon and the P&G OS, and you get great scent that lasts!
I just received a small bottle of OS with lime from India. It feels great after a shave. Two observations...Firstly, I can't detect the lime; however, I'm not great with understated scents. Secondly, I noticed that following the initial sting on application, my face feels really warm for about thirty seconds. This doesn't happen with my other aftershaves at all.
This sounds interesting...What's the ratio of Vi-Jon to P&G? Is the P&G the cologne or the aftershave?
While I really enjoy India's OS Lime, The vintage is much better.
I use the gel. Very soothing and smells great. 
I used to use Old Spice when I was young, before I met my wife. I'd switched to Afta plus cologne before I met her. I saw a bottle of the Old Spice in the store one day, the original ceramic bottle with the stopper, and bought it. When I put it on, my wife teared up...seems her dad, who died when she was young, always wore Old Spice. I thought it might be a nice reminder for her, but she said that not only did it make her sad, but she also couldn't be "romantic" if I was wearing it! (Thinking about her dad was not a turn-on, you know...) So, no Old Spice for me!
Old Spice Original, the classic. My nose isn't smart enough to totally differentiate the differences, although I have an older Ceramic bottle and the newer version and there is a little bit of a difference. Either way, both are awesome and come recommended.
I like the original best. I got lucky this past weekend and picked up 4 full bottles at an estate sale for $1.00 each.
Original scent, I mix the Vi-Jon & P&G like TheVez2 mentioned.
I like Old Spice Whitewater and the vintage Old Spice.
