Rank Your Aftershaves

[Elvergun]

Rank them based on performance an scent preference (not on price).

This is how I rank mine.

Floid Vigoroso
Crown Shaving Co Aftershave Tonic
D.R. Harris Saldalwood
Barriester and Mann Adagio
Ogallala Limes & Peppercorns
Maol Grooming Marlogue Wood
Floid Black
SV Tundra Artica
Furbo
SV Tundra Felce Aromatica
TOBS Eton Colege
Chatillon Lux Blackberry Blossom Bay
Ogallala Bay Rum
Nivea Sensitive Balm
Chatillon Lux La Quatrième Ville
TOBS Jermyn St
Proraso
Cella Splash
WSP Bay Rum
Fine Platinum
Proraso Balm

I own bottles of all of these. Most of them have some staying power (except Proraso and Nivea). Not included above are the countless samples of AS I've accumulated over the years.

Mike, I have to say you've been an influencer! First vntg Avon (another coming today) and based on your list here I did some research on Alpa and just ordered some of their stuff too. Oy!

 

[ghostlife]

1. Any Chatillon Lux
2. other "luxury splash" types e.g. Chiseled Face, B&M
3. Ogallala, Stirling, Proraso
Tied for last. anything else

Ah, I've tried a lot - and where did I find them but here! What goes around, comes around - again!

You FOUND Alpa Fougere? Tricky. Got mine from Shoebox, I think ... It's an awesome and subtle aftershave.

The Avons are treasure, waiting to be discovered. Make that "inexpensive treasure," what The Other Vintage Avon Lady sells me for $3 cannot be believed ... only shaved with and appreciated ...

According to my Shave Buddy app, my top 5 are
Avon Blend 7
Avon Sure Winner
Brickell Aftershave Balm
Shulton's Old Spice
and Aqua Velva Musk
But those rankings are pulled from an overall shave, so really don't tell the true story. My favorites are the Captain's Choice because they leave my face feeling great.

Info on Sure Winner is sparse ... BN even says it's feminine, but I see where it came in a baseball bat decanter - not very feminine there.

For most of us on B and B you'll need the paid version. Unless you're a minimalist.
