Need help with summer scent

[Suhrim21]

I'm looking for some inexpensive soap and aftershaves for summer. Really the only soaps I have that are not deeper scents are stirling lime, flowers in the dark, do not have aftershave for this. I'd love to have some but looks like it is no longer sold. And AOS bergamot and neroli no aftershave for that either.

Any suggestions on a lighter more summer scent soap and aftershave that isn't expensive. I would say right about the price of stirling soap and aftershave. PAA has a couple that sound nice but it's fairly expensive. I do really want to try their soap though.

Bootlegger's you purchase the ingredients and mix yourself (It may seem expensive up front, but you end up with a lot of product in the end and if you do the math, per ounce, it's fairly inexpensive.)

Looking at the soaps you have leads me to suggest Speick aftershave splash. One of the best splashes I've used with a spicy citrus/lavender scent and natural botanical ingredients. That splash would go with both your current lavender and bergamot/neroli soaps. To go along with the splash, you could get a Speick shaving stick or a tube of the Speick cream. Both of these are very good. Total cost should be around $22 or less.

If you haven't tried Speick, it's well worth it.

A bit overpriced too, but they are triple milled pucks.

- Edwin Jagger Aloe Vera.
- Edwin Jagger Limes and Pomegranate.

Haslinger’s marigold may do the trick, great performance with a mild summer scent!

 

[Suhrim21]

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to now be going through them making a list checking it twice find out who is coming home with me.

These are perfect for the summer ! There are plenty more out there, but these three are my favorites
from now until the early Autumn. Fun, fun, fun !

And here's another winner for summer. OMG, the choices are endless. Enjoy the journey !

I'm not a fan of mint or menthol. But that A&E sounds nice.

 

[Hannah's Dad]

If you can find it, Declaration Grooming’s Southern Paradise is a cool smack of peach tea greatness. One of my favorite summer scents. Still have the splash, too.

 

[Scaramouche]

I'm not a fan of mint or menthol. But that A&E sounds nice.

A&E's Summer Fig is a great Summer scent as well, and I would include their L'Orange Verte and T+S's Sicily for citrus notes.

Dr. Jon's Flowers in the Dark is back...maybe a seasonal scent? It's being sold on their website and others. I just ordered a bottle.

Would like to throw a Mystic Waters recommendation in here. I’ve been enjoying the Coconut Sandalwood as my summer soap and my wife described it as “Polynesian intoxicating.” Truly smells like our previous trips to the Hawaiian islands.

Always wanted the soap, now available (and enroute here! )
