Your favorite aftershave to make you feel refreshed.

[shave/brush]

Sometimes after a shave I feel like putting some aftershave on that makes me feel really refreshed. Sort of invigorating. That’s when I reach for Fine American Blend. It just feels great on my face.
What do you reach for when you want to feel refreshed?

Excellent thread!

Possibly vintage Avon Blend 7.....

No idea why.

Proraso green - Eukalyptus and Menthol, ideal for summer
Those Turkish Lemon Colognes are nice as well but I miss the menthol…

Honorable mention for Proraso Green and Aqua Velva, but the King is only one and was born in 1932...

I don't like an aftershave that hangs around for hours, so I usually stick with bay rum.

- Captain's Choice Bay Rum or North most of the time.
- Captain's Choice Cat O' Nine Tails if I want a wake up call.
- Ogallala Bay Run when I need a clove fix.

Aqua Velva and Proraso Green

Another one that is very refreshing is Fine Italian Citrus. Feels great and has a nice scent also.

CC bay rum
Ogallala bay rum
Proraso Green
Cryogen (if you really want a cold, refreshing punch in the face)
Fine Snake Bite (if you want more of a cold, refreshing slap in the face)

I just discovered Speick, so I’m in the honeymoon phase, but I find it incredibly refreshing.

You won’t regret it.
Speick is some kind of special.
You should order some.

My #1 choice has to be Myrsol Plastic Shave. The second product created by Mr. Miquel in the 1940s in Barcelona, and the one he religiously used until his passing a few years ago.

All Myrsol splashes are great and their bottles are splendid. I like Floid, AV and Proraso too, but they are not in the same league as Myrsol.

What’s not to like? It’s the perfect splash
- Alcohol is the first ingredient, as the tradition dictates
- Simple formulas with 5-6 ingredients, as an aftershave splash should be
- No glycerin, no castor oil, no sticky feeling
- Not just alcohol and fragrance, though. Myrsol Uses Sorbitol as humectant agent, which gives a better skin feel than glycerin. Plastic Shave also has Lactic acid that makes the skin so smooooth
- Menthol amount is just perfect
- Classy glass bottle, the very best in the market with a high quality Bakelite cap
- Subtle classic fragrances, very well blended
- a dozen different classic scents to choose from
- small family company operating since the early 1940s

Another new favorite of mine is Ach Brito Lavanda cologne. Works great as a splash too and has a wonderful scent
