B&Bers,
I had one of my best shaves ever today. I used a british gillette #77 with a super iridium which provided a very smooth bbs shave but, thats another story. A quick word about the aftershave. I have been using gentleman's refinery standard balm for the past year as my main go to. It is very nice as well. Tonight I tried the captains choice. This stuff set my face on fire for about 5 minutes. I tried to splash just a small amout out of the bottle but, I managed to get alot more than I meant to. I didn't want to waste it so, on the face it went. WOW it burned. This was my first time with an alcohol/witchhazel aftershave so, many of you are probably laughing at this. I guess I have no tolerance for this stuff yet. When the burn subsided, a coolness set on and my skin felt great. It is hard to describe. The smell is very nice and long lasting but, not overpowering even though I applied too much. It has a spiced rum smell with some cloves in there. more spiced rum than cloves though. A very pleasant fragrance. I really enjoyed this stuff.
