Recommend me an aftershave splash

As the title says, fire away gents...



Note:
I'm wanting something light and fresh that doesn't linger too long and I don't like Old Spice or Tabac (replace I'm/I with 'my partner')

 

[Dick Solomon]

Speick and Proraso are to of my favorites!

 

[Bellac]

Proraso aftershave
Col. Conk lime doesn't last a long time either (to my dismay)

"fresh?" Only thing I've used that comes to mind is AV Ice Sport.
Unless you consider powdery as fresh smelling, grabbing a random bottle of non-store brand stuff would fit that well from a pharmacy.

Speick sounds right up your alley.

 

[TheVez2]

I was thinking Aqua Velva Ice Sport as well, based on your (partner's) requirements.

Clubman LimeSec
Clubman Vegitol
Aqua Velva Musk

Speick is fantastic stuff.

4711

Very subtle scent and it dissipates rather quickly

 

[Charlie NJ]

Speick sounds like the ticket, all of the above are good choices.

Aubrey Organics - North Woods

Available at most Whole Foods for around $10.00.

Outstanding scent, quality ingredients, awesome price

Proraso, AV Ice Blue, or, if you're adventurous, Master Iceland Breeze. Actually, I also think The Veg fits your description, but YMMV.

I don't see how anyone of the fairer sex would dislike Pinaud Lime Sec & Citrus Musk. And they are very fresh smelling and short-lived.

 

[edgerunner]

Proraso, 4711, AV Ice Sport, Floïd Blue, DRH Arlington are all nice and fresh to me.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Looks like that Speick is the one to go for and I'll order a bottle today, lets hope he likes it!
The shaving shop here stocks both Proraso and 4711, so I'll try those next time I'm in.

FYI, I've used Speick balm off and on for a few months. I like how it feels going on (mild tingle), and to me the fragrance is OK. But to my wife it smells "putrid" (her word). This morning she asked me to wash it off. So I'm getting rid of it.

With Citrus Musk, I find that the citrus is short-lived but the musk has staying power, although it is subtle.

I love Speick. Hopefully your partner does too.

Eton College

Is Eton College available as an aftershave?

I've got it as a cologne and shaving cream and love it!
