Lots of places, even Mantic's videos seem to condemn the use of alcohol-based aftershaves, not even as a "as a newbie, I'd recommend not using them for _____ reason." Instead, it is written in bold characters as don't use them period. Why? Isn't it just a personal preference? I mean, some of these AS's have been around for centuries, it seems...why put the kabosh right up front on something that has stood the test of time for so long, for so many companies, and so many millions of men? Am I missing some critical clinical study that relates it to some horrible disease or the like? I'll continue to use my bay rum, AV, Brut, and dapper-man Pinaud, otherwise...
