My twenty-something year-long quest to find the perfect aftershave ended yesterday when this bottle of Midnight Stag showed up at my door. Generally, my complaint about aftershaves is that they are to flowery/feminine. Some are worse than others, but I could never seem to find one that I absolutely LOVED. Midnight Stag just slayed that dragon for me.
After reading the other reviews, I was a little worried that this was going to be more of a novelty than an actual, āwearableā scent. Motor oil?ā¦ A garage full of mechanics?ā¦ Gasoline!?!? But low and behold, I was psyched when I took the first whiff and I was absolutely over-the-moon after the first shave. Not only is the scent AMAZING and totally unique, but the aftershave āfeelsā better than any Iāve used before. Itās got a real kick to itā¦ If that kid from Home Alone had splashed this stuff on his face, he wouldāve immediately sprouted chest hairs, found his fatherās piece and, well.. it would have been a much shorter movie. At the same time, it has just enough oil in it to really sooth nicely without feeling greasy.
Iām 100% all-in on the Stag baby!
