Being it Father's day over here today, it got me thinking about my pop. Memories came rushing back, especially his weekend shaves. The smelltrack was a blend of Old Spice & Skin Bracer. What scent do you associate with your father from childhood?

Brut and Old Spice. That's all my dad used. I have both in my den, and will keep both in my den. These 2 splashes just scream "man" to me...

For my Dad, the earliest I can remember was MacGregor, Lilac Vegetal, and Old Spice. There were others but all were drug store regulars that I don't quite remember.

My Dad used a can of foamy with a Gillette safety razor. However he wore Old Spice aftershave.

My Old Man was all about Old Spice...... Maybe some Brut, Aqua Velva & English Leather. But Old Spice ruled the household when I was knee high. So much so, that I keep some of the ones that he used regularly, all vintage....

My dad didn't shave much less use aftershave or cologne. However, the one thing he did do was use Arrid Extra Dry deodorant spray which had a distinct powdery scent that I forgot about until I got Barrister's Reserve Classic aftershave and the memory came rushing back. I admit it's a weird association.
