I have the same pet peeve. I like to match the aftershave and soap scents but hesitate if the aftershave has a cooling agent. This will prevent me from using a HoM soap and splash pairing for AA.

Because Iโ€™ve earned the right to be a grumpy old man, Iโ€™ll say that if you want a cooling aftershave, just use Aqua Velva! ๐Ÿ˜

๐Ÿค” What about good old ice? Anybody tried after shave on the rocks?

Yes, that was a Lather Games challenge (last year .. I think).

Totally! Shire, Santa Noir, and Almond Leather are kinda ruined for me by the cooling agent, and I'm irrationally upset by it ๐Ÿ˜
