What is Aftershave?
wisegeek ^

Posted on 03/13/2010 6:45:21 AM PST by JoeProBono

Aftershave is a product used most commonly by men on the skin of the face after shaving, although products for women to use exist as well. In addition to smelling good, aftershave helps keep the skin smooth and in good condition, a concern for men who shave every day. Also, as an alternative to commercial aftershave products, men can also formulate their own with specific ingredients or scents so that they can smell unique and have smooth, silky skin.

True, true! But hysterical blindness is a terrible thing so early on a Saturday.

It's the most masculine smell in the universe. I seriously have put a dab behind my ears before a date, and the women were none the wiser....

Anyone know of an aftershave to match the kind of sandlewood scent used by old time barbers? I have memories of this scent as a kid, but never have found anything to quite match.

You can make authentic bay rum by steeping bay leaves for several weeks in actual rum. My wife found a recipe, but I prefer my rum applied straight and internally.

Tobasco...dash of ground espresso roast coffee beans. Keeps bugs away, too.

Yea, I've been accused of that......
