Aftershave 3017 Challenge

Just about through my bottle of Italian barber........there’s hope and I will finish this bottle!

I switched between Floïd Blue and Booster Polar Ice this spring/summer/fall, and will be switching back to Cade balm shortly, say November 1.

Just finished a bottle of Razorock Emperor.
Worked well for me.
I would like to try some other Aventus clones before purchasing this one again.

Clubman original and eau du Portugal ..quite a week

My 100 ml bottle of DR Harris Pink AS is now complete. Excellent stuff, particularly if you want a splash with little/no sting and a very mild scent.

Well 852 days after I cracked the seal on a bottle of RR baby blue I can declare it empty.
(that is Oct 29, 2017 -> Feb 27, 2020 for those keeping score)

Spoiler: What is up next?

Looking forward to trying the Floid.

So thanks to @ruckin I am now aware that this 3017 AS thread exists, so I've decided to start posting over here when I finish one, as I've had a case of ASAD (in addition to RAD & SAD) which has particularly manifested itself in collecting a massive lot of vintage AVON among others and I need to 3017 through my collection.

So without further adieu,

This morning I finished off a homemade concoction I've named "Brutjammer" which was 4 oz of a 50/50 mix of vintage Avon Windjammer and a generic dollar store Brut knockoff. It was a pretty decent blend....

 

[JWCowboy]

Finished off the rest of the Avon Windjammer, good stuff and a really neat "classics" bottle that is made to look like a book. There's also a book bottle of Tribute & Leather that I got on eBay and will be using in the future....

Gone but not forgotten.

This was given to me by my oldest son. It is excellent and if I didn't have so many other aftershave to go through I would spend the big bucks to replace it.

Finished, after what adds up to more than two full years of daily use, one 400 ml bottle of Floïd Blue:

 

[ruckin]

Wow, I have 530 shaves on my bottle... but I still have some left. I took 852 shaves to finish a 400ml of RR baby blue and I expect the floid to last about the same.

You get to a certain point in the bottle and it starts refilling.

 

[ruckin]

LOL I broke my brick of Vitos extra coco into three chunks (in Feb 2019). I am still working on the second chunk after 899 shaves. I swear that someone sneaks in at night and adds just a little bit of soap.

The Floid blue will eventually be emptied... I have faith.

 

[ruckin]

Today after 882 shaves I managed to 3017 a bottle of Floid Blue. I have grown to like it quit a bit. I am sad that I can't seem to find more of it.

 

[ruckin]

Not much traffic in this thread but today I 3017'd a bottle of TOBS St James... after 263 days.

Well @ruckin this seems like a very lonely thread, I didn't even know it was a thing but I am currently trying to 3017 a bottle of Blue Stratos I started in August and I'm hoping to finish it soon-ish. You know how aftershave is, it runs out in its own time

 

[Mike M]

Hopin it won't be long now, I finished 3 last year, why couldn't I have known about this thread then?

 

[Mike M]

Finished my Blue Stratos AS this morning, you're not alone anymore @ruckin

 

[beginish]

Unlike 3017ing soaps, doing it with AS is not for the faint of heart. It takes FOREVER. I finished my bottle of Floïd Blue last fall after a few years working on it. I was working on a tube of TOBS Jermyn Street AS balm before it got too warm, and am now using a sample bottle of Thayer’s Unscented Witch Hazel. I’ll finish that one in a few weeks.
