Easy DIY Aftershave
Growing up, my Dad used Old Spice or Brut. Ya'll remember Brut? It's still around, but I haven't smelled it in years. I'm sure if I did that I would instantly be transported back to five years old and memories of my Dad. Brut never smelled all that awesome, but then again, my Dad never had this ...
