Perfume /aftershave / eau de colognes etc.

I have about 12 - 14 favourites and they are all atop my chest of drawers. As a rule I never wear the same fragrance two days running and if, say I'm going out of a night I'll wear one during the day and put on another, after a shower or bath, for the evening.

To be fair, ration cards are not abundant nowadays either

I tracked the elusive Dioressence down in Debenhams at lunch time
Too stingy to pay £83.50 so just squirted the tester and left.
Can still smell it, no chemicals
Maybe Santa will bring it

Normally a splash of Motul 300v if it's a big night out .

I used to have a drama mistress at school who smoked. She would literally drench herself in Dior's Poison. If she was at the top of the tower block at school, you could tell she had gone up the stairs by the perfume smell she left in her wake.

We used to be visited by a rep who was similarly drenched; she was rather unkindly known as "Toilet Duck" by the girls at work...

This is the most recently used thread about 'aftershave',so i'll post my question on here. Have any of you used,or heard of Floris No 89?


If so,do you recommend it?

Remember it’s quite pleasant and used by Sloane Rangers and the elite including the Royal family.

Also has a 'James Bond' connection,though not the character himself,but the creator of Bond,Ian Fleming. Prince Charles and Winston Churchill are/were fans of the fragrance.

That’s right @Accy cyclist , not a ‘cissy’ fragrance.

Everyday one is Dove Balm and best is Aramis bought as a Chrissie present.Mind you i don't go out much.So it lasts forever.

I use the original Aramis one Postie. It's tried and tested,so it never under performs. I don't go out much either(pub or restaurant wise),but i wear it just for everyday use,like dog walking,shopping etc. You
never know when you might meet someone you like.

Try to use up fragrance before it reaches 5 years old,as according to reports after that it 'goes off'.

I don't use cologne very often but have a nice bottle of Royall Lyme. I like the smell of limes and just imagine myself back in Bermuda.

 

[Yellow Fang]

Either Brute or Old Spice for me. Which was the one advertised by Henry Cooper and Kevin Keegan?

No, wouldn't have it in the house, I'd be reminded of Boris j every time i saw the bottle
