FEATURED AFTERSHAVE - TRUMPER'S EXTRACT OF LIMES
OK Folks. It's been a while since we did a Featured Aftershave so let's kick one off with Trumper's Extract of Limes. It is one of the more expensive aftershaves out there on the market.
Although it has a comparatively large price tag (it will run you north of $50.00), I think you get very little in return. Although the scent is one of the more true lime fragrances you can get, the scent is rather fleeting.
As for its intended purpose, this is where I think it comes up short. I find the Trumper Extract of Limes to be rather drying. It can be categorized in the line of products where there is a matching cologne/aftershave fragrance and the aftershave is little more than alcohol and water matching the fragrance of the cologne. The Floris line comes to my mind, particularly the JF cologne and aftershave. To the contrary, the DR Harris Arlington line has the cologne and the aftershave but the aftershave lotion healing properties are terrific.
If you are layering the EoL soap, aftershave and cologne it certainly makes for a nice shaving experience. However, if you had a rough shave and need the healing properties of a good aftershave, you may have to look to DR Harris' Pink Aftershave, Speick or Musgo Real.
Let's hear your thoughts.
For you consideration is Trumper's Extract of Limes Aftershave.
