Best AS for an interview?

[HomerJay]

OK Gents, I have an interview on Wednesday and need to decide what AS to wear. Something subtle that says "you need to hire this guy." I am interviewing with a woman. Here's what I have:

Aqua Velva
Skin Bracer
Clubman Vanilla
Clubman regular or classic I guess
Old Spice classic
TOBS Sandalwood AS gel
Ogallala Bay Rum
Crown Shaving Bay Rum
Lucky Tiger AS & Face Tonic
Fine AS sample pack with all the scents

Thoughts?

I hope she isn't allergic to after shaves or your potential place of employment does not have a "no fragrance" policy. That being said I would go with the Lucky Tiger.

Crap, didn't even think of that. Maybe some Lucky Tiger on top of Eton College cream.

Lucky Tiger would be a safe bet. The cream will fade quickly.

I love AS as much as anyone, but for an interview like this, I'd go with something really subtle, and in a really small quantity. I don't necessarily think you want her to smell anything at all.

But most of all, good luck!!!!!

Do not wear bay rum. I hate that smell. Scents are very personal and a strong scent may be off putting. Play it safe with aqua velva.

Fine Platinum (the Terre de Hermes clone). Everyone loves that stuff, even if it fades it is classy

I agree with Badger Bill. I'd say no scent. If you must, use a scented soap. My feeling is it's highly unlikely any scent will win you a job, but it can definitely irritate a sensitive (job deciding) nose.

No scent is definitely best for a job interview. Many workplaces have fragrance free policies these days and besides you don't want to accidentally wear something that reminds her of the ex that cheated on her

 

[HomerJay]

Thanks for all the feedback. I think I'll go with Lucky Tiger as the scent is mild and fades very quickly. I'll probably shave about 4 hours before the interview anyway so I should be good to go and feeling fine.

 

[Beard Dregs]

either Witch Hazel, Alum block, or whatever you have thats scent dies off fast

 

[Shaving_CHENG]

A subtle one - your taste might not be theirs.

From your list - Lucky Tiger

Good luck with the interview.

 

[StavrosT]

Play it safe and good luck!

My thoughts exactly !!!

Definetly go for something with a light, crisp and clean scent. As unfortunante as it may seem, you need to have at least a somewhat pleasing appearance and a clean smell certainly helps. Some of you might disagree but I am in a position where I hire and it always helps if they smells as if they're freshly showered and groomed. Don't want anything overpowering, making the interviewer wish she could open a window or point a fan in your direction. I'd go with something like AV Ice Sport...it's fresh, clean, modern smelling, and doesn't overpower. The scent, after wearing it a while, is fleeting. Just right, in my opinion.

 

[steep-n-shallow]

Alum block and pure filtered water is the safe bet

 

[ackvil]

Surprised nobody suggested Arko followed by the Veg!


Seriously, go with an AS that will have no scent by the time of the interview.

Good luck on your interview! Let us know how is goes.

 

[August West]

Yes, of course. Good luck! Keeps us posted.
