Lucky Tiger Aspen vs. Booster Polar Ice?

[Klos Shave]

I'm curious about both Lucky Tiger Aspen and Booster Polar Ice aftershaves and am wondering how similarly they perform and smell. Anyone have experience with the two? I haven't tried either one but my ASAD is kicking in and I feel like I need some new splashes . Are either of these similar to Aqua Velva Ice Sport?

havent tried aspen but polar ice is not like av- av has a more 'cool water' scent to me. booster polar ice has a more old school smell, i like it alot but wish it lasted more than 20 seconds

polar ice has a powdery scent that i find lingers. great performance for me. in my regular rotation along with clubman. very different from the more watery AV.
only tried the regular lucky tiger which was too "orangy" for me.

Zeak, I think you are referring to the Lucky Tiger After Shave AND Face Tonic, which has an orangy, citrusy scent. Klos Shave was referring to Lucky Tiger Aspen, which IMO is great. It is a tad spicier than AV.

Thanks for the comments, gents. I find AS to be so different for different faces. As stated above, one says Polar Ice lasts 20 seconds, the other says the scent lingers. I prefer aftershaves that linger. Not so much for the benefit for those around me, but for my own benefit.

Sound like not too much familiarity with Lucky Tiger Aspen. Hopefully more will chime in.

yes you're right, i meant the Lucky Tiger As and Tonic. Way too much of an orange scent for me. This is the first I've heard of Aspen. I'd be interested if anyone has experience with it.

Polar Ice smells like the Barber Shop my dad and I used when I was a boy. Very old school for me. That's good. The downside is the ingredients are just Alcohol, Water, Glycerin, Menthol and Fragrance. So it doesn't do much really. The menthol is low. I added extra.

Boosters have awesome fragrances, but they just don't do much compared to my other aftershaves.

I had bought a bottle of the Aspen a few years ago, expecting an AV clone. It really was more of a spice scent, almost kind of peppery if that makes sense. If I recall correctly it had little to no Menthol either. But I'd buy it again, I did like it. I like their bay rum too.
