Review (5/5): Another purchaser.
I found this stuff lookin' through other related stuff. Never heard of it. Certainly don't live within the known distance.
Read about it. Read the reviews. Ordered it.. Didn't cost much moola-blah.
Walked a few miles. Avoided people on the street to get home to get it in the mailbox. Cool stuff, old stuff.
It's a lemon-y, spice scent. Some people can tell better than others or are more into it. I could of told you the first few days but sort-of forgot.
It's nice stuff to use. The day I got it I didn't need a shave so I popped it open and used some and sort of felt guilty for using it beforehand, bought/got to use as a shaving/after shave aid. Didn't smell like I imagined it would but then all rules, reminders and thoughts are broken when you come in contact with whatever you had in your mind.
It's not much of anything I "dig". I've used it as an aftershave several times and the problem with it I faced is that: it dries up very, very quickly. In five seconds it has vanished. You want a nice feeling and a lasting feeling and it's just not here and I don't see any use using it as an after shave. It just vanishes and feels a pointless. You might as well not use any aftershave.
I've been using this product as a re-fresher of sorts whenever I feel I want a pick-me-up or whatnot. I don't agree with the olde timey notion that the scent is for everyone. I don't like it that much but since I have it I feel obliged to use it.
As far as I've read and "researched", it may well be the most old-school of "old school" aftershaves. It's around 200 years old if everything dates right. It's worth picking up if you are an old school shaver, I wouldn't guarantee that you'll like it or find much use for it.
Giving 5 stars. Personal opinion doesn't mean a lot here. Try it for yourself and see what works.
