    Default Pick for me...

    Now I know scents are extremely YMMV, but based on my likes and dislikes what do you guys recommend?

    Listed from liked the most to ehhh:

    1) VDH Deluxe (Gray flannel?)
    2) Palmolive
    3) Cella
    4) DR. Harris Arlington


    I know, its strange - I seem to have it backwards : I think I actually like the scent of "soap" which is why the palmolive and VDH get higher places than the others...

    I don't MIND the scent of arlington, its actually growing on my slightly as I use it daily, but I dont feel the "clean barbershop" scent that the VDH gives me.

    If you like clean, soapy scents, try Institut Karite.
    Uh-oh.

    As much as I like Cella it is not a scent I would consider soapy. Almondy?, yes. Soapy? Ehhhh....
    I don't always shave, but when I do, I prefer Cella.
