Clubman Pinaud Special Reserve After Shave Cologne (6Oz)

I have been using Pinaud Clubman products for some time now and this product is good but not as good as the regular Clubman Aftershave lotion. The fragrance is a bit on heavy side. Much like the Aramis fragrance. Good though.

parfum tonique qu'on imagine parfaitement dans un salon de barbier "old school".. L' odeur est subtile et tient bien sur la peau,mais sait s'effacer dès l' application d' une eau de toilette ...C'est exactement ce que j' attend un after-shave. ( la bouteille est en plastique mais le contenant n' enlève rien au charme du contenu )

Sehr gutes oldshool Aftershave erinnert mich irgendwie an ARAMIS classic was ich gerne nehme aber viel günstiger. Special Reserve und Virgin Island Bay Rum sind meine Favoriten von Pinaud die riechen noch sehr männlich was ich persönlich bevorzuge und der Duft hält bei mir 4 bis 5 Stunden auf der Haut was für ein Aftershave sehr gut ist. Ich würde es jedem der auf oldschool Düfte steht empfehlen.

I took my time to write the review, as initially I was very split on this product. After using it for couple of weeks however I can confidently say I like it. It's got very leathery and musky fragrance that wasn't what i was looking for as I'm a fan of more sweet, spicy and smokey, but it is a nice manly smell nonetheless. I wouldn't recommend it for twenty-somethings as it's quite olde worlde, but 30 and up, you should try it. Strong, little goes a long way, masculine, no-nonsense and now it's one of my favourites. Love.

I have been a long time clubman aftershave fan the past 13 years. While I only used the pinaud clubman shave lotion exclusively until the past couple years - then tried and still use their Bay Rum splash and made part of my weekly rotation, I had not tried any others. So recently bought some others to try like this Special Reserve. So here is the breakdown: It's an Aftershave Cologne, so it will be a little different than the Clubman Pinaud Aftershave Lotion. BLUF: It works. The smell is spicy, kinda in a small way smokey but kinda leather. It's very masculine and is what you want in your aftershave rotation. You could also just use as a cologne as well. For example, first use I later went outside and all the women came out and chased me down the street and now they are claiming child support. Its that powerful. and has the old time mens barber shop smell for those old enough to remember it last century. Because it's a cologne, the smell is more heavy and will stick around until you shower the next day. While Clubman's Pinaud is the best aftershave lotion you can buy, you need to have the Bay Rum splash for the light shaving or on the go days and the Special Reserve for when you need everyone focused on you. Bottle came secure and had no leakage, is effective and long lasting and though a cologne, leaves the skin soft. While some may call the smell older man or old timey, its for anyone old enough to shave.
