What Aftershave Goes With Tabac Soap?

[christhach]

...besides Tabac aftershave I mean. I'm interested in people's recommendations / favorite combos.

Like a lot of folks, I find the smell of Tabac soap is rather strong. I do like the scent, but matching it with an aftershave is somewhat of a challange for me. For example, I think Bay Rum after Tabac is a bit too much.

Maybe lime? What do you think?

Mandom... But beware.

Doruk Tabac Cologne (Turkish).

I like using Pinaud Bay Rum, Adidas Deep Energy, the Indian version of Old Spice, and Don to cap off a Tabac shave.

I have only sampled Tabac, but I would say Quorum or Azzaro (original).

I'm a fan of Santa Maria Novella's pre/post with Tabac, although it is tough to find and ungodly expensive.

Aqua Velva Musk goes really well with Tabac.

I usually just use Thayers lavender witch hazel (if I'm not using Tabac AS). I like the resulting smell.

How about eau d' moth balls?

I also like pairing Alt-Innsbruck and Clubman with it as well.

I finished off my first Tabac shave with a splash of Musgo Real. Excellent!

You're really going to think I'm yanking your chain here, because I always post jokes about it, but honestly - Lilac Vegetal for me just seems to complement the Tabac.

I'm not kidding this time.

Honest.

Hmm... one smells like dusty old german man, the other smells like old cat urine. Yeah, I can see the connection.

I found Pitralon (Swiss version) was a nice compliment to Tabac.

The two together are more "Dusty Old German Cat"

Alt-Innsbruck smells heavenly on it's own, but should pair well with Tabac, as they both have the tobacco flower as part of the scent.

I was going to jokingly say Lilac Vegetal, but I see Phil beat me to the suggestion.

I have not tried Lilac Vegetal yet by the way.
