Delightfully rugged

The scent of Irisch Moos is what inspired Irish Spring soap, or so the story goes. This 90s version opens harsh, fresh, very herbal, oakmossy, musky, and pretty much stays that way for the duration. The shaving cream vibe is powerful. Save for some soapiness later on, it's mostly linear, but we shouldn't expect too much complexity from a drugstore after shave designed in the 1960s. I hear the current version tones down the moss and amps up the shaving cream even more, which, depending on your tastes, might be a good trade off.

It projects very well for the first hour and longevity is 5 hours, good even by EDC standards. I hear the EDT concentration is beast mode - when the juice runs out of this bottle I might replace it with that.

Masculinity Level: We're at an Arnold-in-Predator level of ruggedness.

The little Hobbit

I'm sure it smells exactly like that in the Shire
Green, fresh, mossy, somehow a bit droll after grandpa's pillow but also very masculine in an experienced way. Not a testosterone sailor with broad arms, but an experienced elderly gentleman who is so fast nothing from the peace brings.

Pleasant on the skin, the price is the hammer and the fragrance is good and nostalgic. In my opinion even more original than Pitralon, who went quite well with the time.

Lasts about 1-2 hours (if used as an after shave only) and smells intensely for the first 20 minutes, then relaxes for the nose
What more could you ask for? Practical and good.

Immortal green freshness kick

Oh yes, the dog and the meadows! I have probably seen this advertisement the most of all fragrance advertisements of my childhood. Anyway, she's the one I remember best. At some point, I firmly believed, I would also be such a pithy guy with a jeep, who walks through the woods with his dog. It came differently. I don't come to the forest very often, somehow I didn't become so pithy (which makes me really happy) and the faithful dog is represented by a complicated tomcat. What has remained is SIR Irish Moss, which is one of my favourite aftershaves. It doesn't reach the sovereign old school style of Tabac Original, but in terms of herbal freshness it beats the other vintage shaving waters by far.

Unlike other After Shaves, the top note comes across well here - green, cool, super refreshing. Also in terms of durability, it weighs noticeably more than the zero-eight-fifteen shaving water. I think Mäurer & Wirtz inherited 4711 from Mäurer & Wirtz, and the Mülhens DNA seems to have a positive effect on Sillage and shelf life. Always happy! Also without Wald, Waldi & all-wheel drive.
