The Art of Shaving After-Shave Balm

Amazing quality item! Bought this years back when the Art of Shaving was still around at malls. Decided to give it another go and it is worth it. Smells natural, not overpowering, and does its job. Worth the price!

This After-Shave balm goes on like lotion but leaves your face super smooth and super clean! This particular one (that I got) is the unscented gray label one. I chose this one over the scented ones simply because I love the smell of my summer shaving cream and don't want to overpower or cover it up. Plus sometimes scents located around my nose can give me a headache if too strong. This stuff is convenient and easy going, which allows for a nice light business friendly overall smell.

An excellent replacement for the discontinued Ralph Lauren Polo Green aftershave balm. The sandalwood scent is very deep and lasts long.

My 45-y/o son loves this particular scent and brand. It's a special treat for him. Little pricey for me, but the quality is apparent in the texture and results of his skin.

I usually get Truefitt and Hill for 65 but they didn't have Grafton so I opted for this instead. It's ok but I won't choose it again. I waited a few weeks to really give it a chance. It's going to last a very long time which would be great except I don't care for it so do I toss 50 or use it for half a year or whatever? It'll wind up under the sink until it's there so long I just toss it.Pros- soaks in very nicely- non irritating- works as intended- going to last a very long time so there is definitely valueCons- The smell is chemically and not Lavender so I shook it vigorously and it helped but not nearly enough. It's not actually bad but its next to your nose so it needs to at least be good. It's a deal breaker. maybe i had a bad batch or the formula changed.- It's thin and I wind up using about 5 pumps.- the pump applicator is hard to figure out exactly which direction it is pointing. You can guess how this ended up so now I have to pay attention.It's the little things that make it great or not and this unfortunately ended up as a not. These products last me a long enough time that I don't mind spending more for a near perfect product like Truefitt and HIll. Their bottles look good on the counter, smell great, apply nicely and its obvious where it's going to pump. I think 4 stars is fair because some of this should be expected for a less expensive product but if you are really price sensitive then 50 is to much when Nivea does the job for 10.

The Sandalwood has always been my go-to for Art of Shaving products. But I find that to be a great fall/winter scent, and wanted something a bit lighter for summer. Man, this did not disappoint. The scent - which I can best describe as citrus and floral, but definitely heavier on the citrus scent - is just perfect. I loved it the moment I smelled it. And when my wife first smelled me, she said it reminds her of the amenities you get at upscale beach hotels. She said I “smell like vacation.”

Only a small dab give a refreshing finish to a close shave.

Used this product since 2010 haven't looked back, still my favorite scent.
