Spearhead Shaving Seaforth! Fleur de France:
This is a heavy geranium scent. So heavy that at first it was acrid and unpleasant (first time I have ever been asked not to wear an aftershave). So, unpleasant you wonder why they didn't chuck it out rather than put it on the market. In fairness, maybe I didn't shake it up enough when first opened? Now, probably one year later only maybe 1/8 of the bottle is left. It is much milder now. Perhaps it has oxidized? Dunno. Also, it has glycerine in it. Makes my face sticky for a while. I don't like that. I should have checked the ingredients before I bought it.

Its unfortunate that you haven't enjoyed fleur de france. That may be my wife's favorite LOL YMMV
There are others who like it too. I often wonder with "small batch", "hand made" fragrances, soaps, etc. whether there might be huge batch to batch variance? Couple that with no industrial scale quality control and this is a possibility. We all tend to think that small production runs and "craftsmanship" are good things but there is something to be said for industrial scale production and professional quality control when it comes to pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.. As I said before, it is fine now that it has "aged", oxidized, whatever, but it should never have been sold in the original condition.
