Men say ‘excellent’ aftershave ‘turns heads’ and it’s below £25 for Valentine’s Day
‘Warm, sweet, and crisp spice, a perfect blend that rivals the Oud fragrance popular at the moment’
Valentine’s Day is creeping closer, and for anyone still unsure what to buy, aftershave is always a great shout. With that in mind, we’ve spotted a seriously good discount on a scent shoppers say ‘turns heads’, and it’s now available for under £25.
Cremo’s Spice & Black Vanilla Eau de Toilette (100ml) has been reduced to £23.22 from £30.95 when shoppers use the discount code CREMO25. The offer applies across the entire Cremo website, meaning everything from body washes to shaving creams is also included in the 25% off deal.
The aftershave itself is a warm, sweet and spicy blend, combining notes of tobacco, black vanilla and cardamom. It’s the kind of cosy yet confident scent that works just as well for everyday wear as it does for date nights.

Even better for gifting, Cremo has just released a matching Spice & Black Vanilla body wash, making it easy to double up on the scent. With the code, it’s down to £9.71 from £12.95.
Fragrances built around tobacco and vanilla continue to be hugely popular, with one of the most famous examples being Tom Ford’s Tobacco Vanille (£254.15, Look Fantastic), a cult favourite known for its rich, sweet-spicy profile – albeit at a much higher price point. That makes Cremo’s offering an appealing alternative for shoppers wanting a similar vibe without the luxury price tag.

Cremo is offering 25% off sitewide with the discount code CREMO25.
As mentioned, it’s been a hit with Cremo shoppers, with one happy customer saying: “I love the smell and its longevity and have no complaints and will be purchasing the other colognes.”
Meanwhile, a second added: “If you like a strong scent that lasts, then this is for you! Warm, sweet, and crisp spice, a perfect blend that rivals the Oud fragrance popular at the moment. It definitely turns heads.”
Another popular Cremo scent is Palo Santo (£26.22 from £34.95), a blend of cardamom, papyrus and Palo Santo. Most Cremo shoppers love it, with one saying: “This is absolutely amazing – the smell is stunning and long lasting and just SO refreshingly different.”
And another piped up: “A beautiful sandalwood scent. It lasted almost 12 hours on my skin, and, mind you, I apply scents liberally.” However, someone else noted: “I wish Cremo would sell a sample pack consisting of two to three scents, and that way we could determine the scent that we like.”
Beyond fragrance, Cremo is also well known for its shaving range. Its Original Shaving Cream, now reduced from £10.95 with the same discount code, features a subtle citrus scent and a concentrated formula designed to become extra slick when mixed with water. This helps the razor glide smoothly over the skin, reducing the risk of nicks, cuts and razor burn.
The majority of shoppers love the cream, with one saying: “Cremos shave cream is first class. Cleaner with less mess than shaving soap and brush. It leaves my face fresh with no nicks.”
A second chimed in: “Been shaving for over 35 years and this is the best shaving cream I’ve ever used.”
However, this mixed review reads: “Shaving cream goes well with my razor, good effect, smells nice and fresh. Although it does leave a bit of a ‘film’ on your face.”
To complete the setup, there’s also the Cremo Tortoise Razor, which features a tortoise-shell handle for better grip and an undeniably stylish finish that elevates any bathroom shelf. It’s reduced to £14.96 from £19.95 with the discount code.
For those browsing beyond Cremo, another popular shaving brand worth knowing about is Taylor of Old Bond Street, a long-standing favourite known for its traditional creams and classic barbershop scents. Its shaving creams are particularly popular, with a range of scents including lime zest, grapefruit, and coconut.
