Grooming and Hygiene

[zhivago]

Thinking I'll start with a Merkur and some Proraso?

[derivative666]

fit and finish is much better on the Jagger!!!

[seawolf]

That's true, and the price! However, the Merkurs tend to be a bit more aggressive. It all depends on what you like! (I have both, and I keep my Jaeger in my gym bag, and Merkur at home)

Anyone here use fragrances? I'm an Acqua di Gio hater :P. Big fan of woody and spicy colognes

[Snowy]

Yup, currently got 3 on rotation;

Versace - Eau Fraiche EDT
YSL- Body Kouros EDT
YSL - M7 EDT

Probably the most hated cologne ever
Le Secretions Magnifique

^ Body kouros is nice and Eau Fraiche is a good fresh scent love them

Portland General Store has some good stuff. I alternate between 'Whisky' and 'Wood'.

Jo Malone all the way. These are meant to be used alone, or layered.

Oud and Bergamot
Grapefruit
Black Vetever Cafe

Aqua di Parma

[Seul]

Not very original, but I like it… 200 ml. (6.7 oz) bottle cause it's cheap that way 

[Anesthetist]

I typically wear either Guerlain Vetiver, Voyou, or Sous Le Vent. Almost out of Voyou and the Sous Le Vent is way too expensive and rare for daily use so more commonly the Vetiver or occasionally Geir Ness.
