Classy smell
Review of Avon Black Suede Aftershave by
donley
Advantages: Affordable, long lasting, stylish
Disadvantages: none
I used to always wear this aftershave, about 20 years ago..
My ex-wife loved it, thats probably what put me off it.
There is a strong smell straight away, but it calms down to a sort of mellow tree type smell. hard to define. but it works well when it blends with sweat.... sounds sick, but that is the way a good perfume works.
Black Suede however, is different than most mens aftershave. There is no oooooh sting when first applied, and it is not ... ...expensive aftershaves, normally named after football players and liquids that power tractors etc.
No Black Suede is a "classy" aftershave, as the bottle will attest to. It is a chunky bottle that lookls like you need to hold ti tight while you douse yourself in the stuff.
A little goes a long way, and it actually does get better after a few hours. It is very inexpensive from Avon. Give it a try ...

Black suede, Great aftershave
Review of Avon Black Suede Aftershave by
adrian142
Advantages: Long lasting fragrance. Splash or spray application
Disadvantages: Is a fragrance one either likes or doesn't
...wife was flicking through her Avon catalogue, when she passed it over to me saying, "Smell this, what do you think?"
It was one of those smelly pages which I just sniffed at, and I must say, unusually, stopped and took another sniff, then actually looked at the page. It was for Black Suede Aftershave, and I was impressed. Not enough to buy the company, but it was on offer, so I did buy the product. What did I think of it?
It arrives packaged in ... ...think the best of the Avon range for men I have tried to date. It has quite a strong initial perfume, but this quickly softens to a woody/pine aroma, which has vague undertones of citrus. It is, according to my wife, very appealing, and has long lasting properties. I found that it is just as good hours after it has been applied. It is in no way overpowering, yet is noticeable in a sensual sort of way
It is a very gentle formula, which, I have found, ...

David Beckham Instinct
Review of David Beckham Instinct After Shave Lotion by
mattyboy4
Advantages: Very nice smell and easy application.
Disadvantages: None really.
This product has a unique fresh smell, and with a press quirt top makes it much easier to apply than regular tip and slap aftershaves. It comes with a very clever magnetic top to stop leakages and spills, and also comes in a very stylish box to show off the elegance of the smell. The product is very well worth the money as you get lots of sprays for the cost, and even though the bottle only looks small, because of it powerful yet elegant smell, the ... ...product to anyone who likes to smell nice for an evening out or likes a refreshing smell and easy appliance for an aftershave, for all age ranges and is also available for a little price. For me, i put around 4-5 sprays on at about 8 o'clock in the morning, and the smell stays around until about 6-7 in the evening, but this depends on how many sprays are applied and where they are applied to on the body. ...

Sweet but Subtle Red Lacoste
Review of Lacoste Lacoste Red After Shave Spray by
willsimmonds_123
Advantages: Lovely Smell, Great on a night out, Sweet scent
Disadvantages: Expensive
...have to say that red lacoste is one of the best i've ever had. I first purchased red lacoste about a year and a half ago and from trying the first spray i simply fell in love with it.
It has a very sweet, suculent smell to it, that is perfectly light and fresh compared to Hugo Boss or Joop. The aftershave is quite underlying, and it dosent shout out with a strong scent. However, i think this is really quite a nice characteristic to the aftershave ... ...three bottles of 30ml red lacoste and i wear it for just about every occasion. Lectures, work, dates and night clubs, and at all of these places, compliments come flying at me. I have guys asking me where i got it from and that they would want some for themselves.
These reasons are why i wrote a review because i thought i would share my feelings for the aftershave. However, I suggest that you should go and test the aftershave out at a shop before, ...
