I'm with ya on the brut thing. I grabbed a bottle one day and figured why not and I'm hooked on it now. After some lucky tiger vanishing cream brut is just awesome.For me it's Aqua Velva. Always there to pep me up with menthol, and glycerin to make me silky smooth. Perfect all year round. Brut made a fast comeback as well. I remembered Brut's feel completely wrong from my kiddo days.
