  American Crew Pomade (High Shine, Medium Hold)

  A pomade that gets a lot of criticism in the deeper pomade nerd community… But sometimes people just want to complain about what’s popular and mainstream. Personally, I think it’s very good! The scent profile is very discreet, a very light touch of citrus and a bit of woodiness, possibly a little lavender. The scent is so weak in projection but also neutral in its profile that you don’t have to be too careful matching it with any perfume. But if you want to, go for something woody + citrus, why not Creed’s “Aventus” (2010) or Versace’s “Eros Energy” (2024). But it’s not that important, “American Crew Pomade” isn’t a pomade that dominates the airspace in that way, so you can choose pretty much anything. “American Crew Pomade” has very good hold for a product marketed as medium hold. But if you want a more spectacular hairstyle with critical details that you want to last 12+ hours, then bring out the hairspray 😎 But it does say on the can, it’s simply a medium hold product. And HIGH SHINE is a feature that also comes from the can’s label, and that’s accurate! Very nice and strong shine that lasts. Final verdict: easy to get, reliable, works for blind buys, a stable product simply. BUT, it’s not particularly good value. Not because it’s bad in any way, it’s just expensive compared to many other water-based pomades. But a good buy if you don’t want to dig through various esoteric brands and homebrews and want something easily accessible. 4/5!
