  • Proraso After shave is refreshing and toning! Splash it on and it gives you a real good wake up! Yet, it doesn't linger too long. It slowly fades away. It does not overwhelm.
    Even though it has hints of menthol and eucalyptus, it doesn't smell like medicine. The scent is fresh and vibrant and cool.
    It's an after shave that has that old-time barbershop quality and scent and leaves you feeling manly, crisp, and clean.

    Easily my favorite aftershave, would be great if the scent lasted longer, becuase this smells great. Light but still masculine. I now too also use all the Proraso products after a process ot elimination. Using other products & with each one finding my way to one of the Proraso products. I started with the pre-shave, then aftershave & just recently the shaving cream & I'm not looking back, again i did this all while trying other products that i just didn't like as much as i do the Proraso stuff. This feels great after a good shave. After a shower i apply a little.of the pre shave & cover my face with a warm a barbers towel, while i get my shaving cream ready & razor ready. I add some Proraso shaving cream which is great by the way, shave & finish with this aftershave. I like the green line the most. The sensitive is nice too, but i really like how the green line smells & performs. I've tried a bunch of other types of aftershave but this is my go to. Great video.

    I enjoyed your video. Poraso is one of my favorite aftershave lotions.
    Alcohol is a powerful antiseptic for razor cuts that oftentimes can't be seen with the naked eye. Only a fool would waste their money on aftershave without alcohol. Alcohol can kill MRSA and other staff infections that commonly live on the exterior of the skin and nostrils. Poraso also has a moisturizing feel and dosen't leave residue. Dont waste your money on the 3 ounce bottle from Amazon Walmart on line sells it in a 13.5 ounce bottle way better value.

      I've found that Pinaud Clubman and Clubman Bay Rum have the longest lasting scents after a shave (for me. YMMV). But, it's not a constant scent, per say. Yes, sometime after the shave, the scent remains. but it dissipates (like others). However, hours after applying, I often get a hint of the fragrance rising up again.

    Hi Mark. Ah, you like glass bottles. Mennen Skin Bracer, which is sold in many drugstores very cheaply in Switzerland, comes in glass bottles only. I did not even know, that they offered it in plastic too.

    • @MarkSzorady
      @MarkSzorady  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Patrick, folks actually look in antique stores and thrift shops for old Mennen skin bracer glass bottles (and other brands). Glass is simply better for long storage of after shave. I understand that plastic is safer, but there's something about more polished about glass.
      So, don't throw away those glass bottles. I fear you might see the switch to plastic, too.

    • @Juraberg
      @Juraberg 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh man, I have always tossed these glass bottles into the glass recycling container. I have always taken it for granted to have after shaves and colognes in glass containers. I can't even think of one sold around here that is in a plastic container. Funny, isn't it?
      So, may be I should collect these glass bottles, and... ... I don't know... ... give or sell them.

    • @MarkSzorady
      @MarkSzorady  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Patrick,
      If you read some of the reviews on amazon, you'll see that glass bottles are sorely missed
      From amazon reviews:
      "Okay so why three stars?
      Plastic is the rating crusher I'm afraid.There's no change in scent formula or anything it's just that plastic makes the smell a little flat.Glass bottles yes may boost material cost but keeps the smell fresh.If you bought a new old stock bottle of Skin Bracer Original in the glass bottle and smell this and the plastic bottle... you'll notice plastic has stolen some of the richness from this great aftershave.I'd drop a dollar or two more for Skin Bracer to go back to thick glass bottles."
      And another:
      "My only complaint is that I miss the old glass bottles with screw on lids."
      It's the same with Clubman:
      " I would have liked it been in a glass bottle instead of plastic but maybe someday they will change plastic to glass."
      "Kind of cheap that it comes in a plastic bottle rather than glass."
      "I just wish it was a glass bottle instead of plastic."
      Also, Aqua Velva users:
      "The old standard, been using it for years. My wife like the fragrance better then more expensive after shaves.
      Too bad it's in a plastic bottle now. But what I did, I have an old Aqua Velva glass bottle and as it empties out, I fill it from the plastic bottle. So I have the glass bottle on my counter in the bathroom"
      "OK, the bottles aren't glass anymore, sadly"
      "...expecting the bottle to be made of glass(as it was some 50 years ago) this is why not 5 stars!"
      "To me, new things have no soul. I'm glad that Combe/Williams
      Company continues to produce this after shave. Now bring back
      the glass bottle and it's perfect."
      Yes, plastic is safer. No doubt. But glass holds the scent better and has a much more polished look and feel.

    • @Juraberg
      @Juraberg 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just amazing. I was not aware of all this. As I said, until now I took it for granted to have all the aftershaves, balms, colognes in glass containers. The only products that I have in plastic are Thayers and Pinaud Clubman, because they come from the USA.
      I think from now on I shall find a spot in my cellar and store all empty glasses from aftershaves. Some day somebody will be happy to get them.

      The Pinaud Clubman has a very distinct scent. It's a bit difficult to describe, but most wet shavers refer to it has and "old school barbershop" scent. It's quite fresh, though.
      when I say it lasts all day, I mean that I'll get a hint of it re-surfacing many hours later. A nice reminder of my morning shave. Clubman's Bay Rum is the same way.:)
      My older brother recently came back to the traditional wet shave. Even though he sports a thin beard, he wanted to shave his neck and get a nice crisp line. He now uses the Vikings Blade Chieftain Junior for this. Anyhow, I PIF'd him some shaving creams and soaps, etc. and threw in a bottle of Pinuad Clubman. He likes it a lot. But, just the other day, I asked his wife how SHE liked it. She LOVES the scent.:)
