Sandlewood Aftershave

~~stemwad~~ · 07-30-2016, 05:49 AM

Hello everyone. Can anyone suggest a sandalwood aftershave? I do not like sweet. I'd like something that lasts a long time maybe even cologne. I'm getting tired of the same old same old time to Branch out. It really has to be a real earthy spicy manly fragrance

Hi @"gregkw12" how about Castle Forbes Cedar & Sandalwood? Its even on sale at Fendrihan. I have it in both shaving cream and balm and it is cedar forward for sure but pretty nice.

Unfortunately I do not like balms I don't like anything creamy. It always feels greasy on my skin

probably the best thing for me to do is go to all the different websites vendors and product manufacturers get samples and see what I really like

Meehan Sandalwood Cologne. This is the real deal. I got rid of all of my other sandalwood AS/Colognes and kept this one.

PAA has the 150ml bottle for $29.95 on clearance sale right now. That is half price. They had all the Castle Forbes balms on sale but the 150ml Cedarwood & Sandalwood is the last one left.

The perennially underrated HBG Sandalwood. High quality ingredients, very reasonable price and good scent strength.

I know what you mean about greasy but not all balms are like that. Stirling and Soap Commander balms are not greasy at all. I haven't tried Castle Forbes so can't speak for it.

I ordered five samples from PAA including a sandalwood guess I'll try that first. And someone who gets rid of all their sandalwood's and keeps only one to me it's worth trying the real deal

I think you'll be pleased with PAA. They have some amazing scents, and the longevity is among the best out there that I've tried. Which scents did you go with?
