Item Description
D. R. Harris Arlington Aftershave is made by the renowned company of D. R. Harris, a brand which without doubt can compare to the three Ts. This review is about the splash type of aftershave - there is also a 'Milk' version of this which essentially is a runny balm.
Both packaging and the glass bottle were kept simple.
[imga=right]http://badgerandblade.com/gallery/displayimage.php?imageid=15621[/imga]Dabbed on the scent of citrus and fern come to your nose. A few moments more the menthol kicks in. Though itself none of these are spectacular. But when the splash is drying it is playing its trump card. They go very well together: the alcohol is evaporating (which produces a cooling effect), the menthol is cooling once more, and the citrus and fern please your nose. Its sting is only moderate and partially covered by the menthol though it's there and good for waking up or reminding you of using less pressure whilst shaving. Leaves the skin soothed and is not greasy.
The aftershave bottle is made out of glass. The nozzle itself lets enough liquid pass through yet reduces the likeliness of spilling too much on your hands. It's simple and well made like the rest of the whole product.
You want to know the ingredients? Sure, head over here for both the old and reformulated one.
It is widely available in the online world of shaving vendors and quite pricey, as almost all British shaving toiletries are. However its effectiveness makes up the cost and as I write this review the GBP to EUR exchange rate is so low, placing an order off the UK can turn out to be beneficial.
