    Default Aftershave at night, am I the only one?

    Gentlemen,

    I have developed the habit of using a splash of AS at night, just before I go to bed. It is refreshing and I find the scent calming. Do any of you do the same? Oh and I am not talking about night shaving here, just splashing on some AS. My favorites so far are Brut Original and Proraso AS splash.

    I have just developed this habit as well. I completely agree with you, refreshing and calming. I prefer P&G Old Spice or English Leather. Glad to know neither of us are completely bonkers!

    +1. Guilty as charged. Lately, I've been on the Proraso White alcohol free balm bandwagon just before bed

    Another guilty party here. I like to smell good when going to bed, but see no reason to use cologne. I just need it to last for a few minutes.

    I do it sometimes, for the same reasons as stated. I usually stay away from the Osage Rub though, it would be like trying to sleep with your face in a bucket of ice

    Same here - I even use the Proraso AS Splash.. I had a sample of Tabac AS that I used up - more is on order, and I'll switch hit with that once it arrives.

    I do sometimes, but it's usually due to the night shaving. I think part of the reason I shave at night sometimes is for the same reason, though.

    Once again, you have all provided the proof that I need to convince my darling fiance that I am not weird (or at least not as weird as the rest of you)!

    At night I like to clean up with Rose or Lavender Thayer's Witch hazel. I find it relaxing.

    Lol I do this too! I thought I was crazy because my brother giggles when he sees me do it. I really like Brut as well as CK One for this.
