Tabac aftershave

[Leisureguy]

I hadn't even known that Tabac made an aftershave. Just ordered some, and now I can have an all-Tabac shave (well: soap or shaving cream and aftershave). Have any of you tried the Tabac aftershave?

27 years ago I wore it when i got married, seemed to work well they have been the best 27 of my life. I till love the after shave too :), I do not use it often these days however it will be a scent that I always have.

I've used it on and off over the last year. It's pretty strong for an a/s, with quite a bit of staying powder. Smells very much like the soap, and has a powdery finish. I prefer it in the cold season -- bit too strong for the Summer. I think there's also a cologne, but that would seem redundant given the staying power of the a/s.

I seem to recall someone here saying the A/S is not as good as the EdT so I got the EdT and love it. Is your perception different?

I haven't tried the EdT -- only the A/S. I just can't imagine wearing any cologne when I use the Tabac A/S, as it tends to last all day.

Extremly powerful stuff. The scent on me lasted ALL day. I loved it but, SWMBO and one of my students had an allergic reaction. Gone away is the Tabac :cursing: :incazzato

Michael, it's one of my favourites, and is definately my wife's favourite on me. What's said above is right thouh, stronger with more staying power than most.

[RJSquirell]

Michael they have regular, mild, soft and an ASB.
EDC's, soap, bath gel., deorderant etc.
Try German deli.com. they have a good list of products to include spieck and 4711. Prices seem a bit steep to me but the one time i've called them the phone girl didn't know the answer but went to find out.

[TexasShaver]

Germandeli.com has the highest prices, by far, I've ever seen for Tabac and 4711. Check out Scentiments.com for both, although I think Tabac EDC is out of stock right now.

regularly use the soap, edt, deodorant. Gotta love those old school manly scents.
would be cool nice to see a shower gel or body soap.

[Jodanster]

I love the Tabac A/S!! :thumbup:

[Groundhog]

I really liked it, but SWMBO disagreed....sold it off to MikeR awhile back.
+1 on the staying power......I've never used another A/S that had the scent last as long. Musgo Real comes close.

[msandoval858]

Awesome stuff, wearing it right now. Scent just the same as the soap and EdC. Leaves the skin feeling great and very minimal burn. When I use Tabac, I go for the trifecta and use all three together.

[jnich67]

To me, the Tabac A/S is the real Tabac scent. I also use the EDC, but its not as good as the A/S. Great stuff :thumbup:

So.....I ordered some Tabac A/S to go along with my shave cream, shave soap, and EdC. I also ordered the stick deodorant. Do they make toothpaste???????

[SteveS]

It's pretty strong for an a/s, with quite a bit of staying powder. Smells very much like the soap, and has a powdery finish.

+1 on all of this. I don't really like it.

I agree with all of this - I seldom use my Tabac (soap or A/S) in the summer.

Also, when I asked about Tabac while in Europe last year, the shop girl asked if I was buying it for my father/grandfather - so its definitely considered a scent for older gentlemen.

Well, Tabac's been around since 1959, so it doesn't surprise me that a younger person would have smelled it on his/her father or grandfather.

In fact, my father used it when I was growing up in the '60s, and still uses it today. Which must be one reason why I use it -- in fact, I put some on this morning.

I don't have the sense, expressed by others, that it's on the strong side, but I use it pretty sparingly. I do love the scent (and women in my "age range" seem to love it too! :wink: )
