Men say they've been flooded with compliments after switching to a budget aftershave that you've probably never heard of.

With hundreds of rave reviews, the little-known fragrance is described as 'sensual' on the website, with notes of cardamom, tobacco and vanilla.

Some reviewers even say it's helped them on dates, with some claiming the scent 'turns heads'.

"I'm not someone who needs a cologne to last all day. What matters to me is that within the first few hours, it turns heads - and this one definitely does," one customer shared on Amazon.

"I regularly get compliments during that window, and I’m perfectly fine re-applying later with another spray or two."

Another shared, "After trying this cologne on a date with a girl, she would always lean in and hug me or get close to me - I couldn’t get her off me!

"Especially for the price, this item is great and has a very nice fresh smell to it. I’ll definitely be purchasing more in the future."

"This has me smelling like a snack from head to toe and I don't care about spraying too much because the scent is subtle and the product is cheap," a third added. "I keep it in my car and re-spray myself all day."

The best part? Some shoppers have claimed it's just as good as designer brands such as YSL or Montblanc, but without the eye-watering price tag.

Spice and Black Vanilla Eau de Toilette

According to one customer, her husband still smells good 'after a long work day and two-mile walk' after using the Bourbon and Oak body wash. In fact, she's even been borrowing it from him.

"I absolutely love this product! My boyfriend uses it and for a brief time, I did when we had to have a long-distance relationship," she shared. "The scent is amazing and lingers all day long. He still smells great after a long work day and two-mile walk outdoors!"

The budget-friendly body wash boasts the smell of distiller’s spice, single-cask bourbon and white oak.
