Old Spice.
What's your favorite drug store aftershave?

On the assumption that at least one of my bottles of vintage Old Spice were originally acquired in a drug store, I will say Old Spice.
Otherwise, Aqua Velva Ice Blue.
Otherwise, Aqua Velva Ice Blue.
This is almost cheating, since the drugstore where I buy AS is Pasteur Pharmacy - but I have to say Floid Vigoroso.
Aqua Velva Original Sport. 235ml for $4.44 at Wally World. As a bonus, the wife loves it!
For under a twenty dollar bill, buy Clubman, AV, and Skin Bracer. Just buy them all.
Round two: Buy Old Spice, Brut, and Stetson.

The only drugstore aftershaves I like are European drugstore aftershaves: La Toja and Proraso green.
My favorite drugstore aftershaves can only be found in European drugstores, as I understand it:
Tabac
Pashana
Floid Vigoroso
Tabac
Pashana
Floid Vigoroso
We are eurosnobs, @pbrmhl!
Indeed, although the Europeans would laugh at what we pay for "drugstore" aftershaves!
Yup, there's got to be a better way? Have gotten Tabac soap shipped from the UK, cheaper than USA sellers.
Seems members from deferent countries could be working trades.
Old Spice
Brut
Skin Bracer
Brut
Skin Bracer
AV blue
Clubman
Absolutely Clubman
For drugstores near me, AV Ice Blue for sure.

Clubman
Pinaud Clubman
Of the ones I have tried, it is Pinaud Clubman.
Tough choice, so I'll cheat a little.......
The choice of shaving products in the Farmacias in Mallorca is pathetic at best, and they don't sell aftershave.
Luckily, between them Eroski and Mercadona supermarkets sell some very good aftershaves/colognes, all of which are among my favourites...
Floïd Vigaroso, La Toja Aftershave Locion and Williams Expert Aqua Velva are great for soothing, cooling and freshening up on a daily basis
Varon Dandy has a more refined, leathery scent
For a night out, Puig Agua Brava gives Pino Silvestre a very good run for it's money
For a €7 house brand from Mercadona, comotú aventura is virtually indistinguishable from Christian Dior Farenheit
But trying to decide which is my overall favourite from Spain is a big ask
However.....
My favourite drugstore aftershave from France, and one of my all time favourites has to be Brut Original, although when I was growing up in late 1980s England, I preferred Brut 33
My favourite drugstore aftershave from Italy is Pino Silvestre - very refreshing for a night out in summer
My favourite drugstore aftershave from USA is Jovan Musk, closely followed by Mennen Skin Bracer
My favourite drugstore aftershave from India is Old Spice Fresh Lime, closely followed by Old Spice Original and Old Spice Musk
Original is " close to the way I remember Old Spice 'back in the day' in late 1980s England - but not exactly the same.
My favourite drugstore aftershave from Germany is also my all time favourite aftershave which I only use for a special night out - Tabac Original
