Amazingly great stuff; it's an aftershave product focused 100% on the health and care of your face. This is hands-down the best aftershave for your face; it turns your skin into silk and after using it for a few weeks I can say it keeps making it better. Even though it's expensive a little goes a long way; with a wet face all you need is one squirt of the pump for decent coverage. There's easily 100 applications in this bottle, and that's on the conservative side. There are a couple considerations (not flaws): 1) It's alcohol-free, (as mentioned this stuff is focused on the care of your face; alcohol is tolerated by most people's skin, but it's not necessarily good for it). 2) The scent is good, but also quite mild. Personally I add a half-pump of this to any other aftershave balm I use just to give it a boost--and because I do that I might replace this bottle with the unscented variety next time around.

Very nice stuff. Somewhat thick (which is good) leaves your face feeling very smooth. Absolutely no bite or freshness, more like what it says: a balm, almost like an herbified butter for your face. Minimal scent, which is good if you plan to use separate cologne. I like it a lot for how perfectly smooth it makes my face feel afterwards; for my next aftershave though (when this stuff runs out which I expect it won't for at least a year) I plan to go back to something with more bite to it.
