I’ve posted on this thread before but, sitting here today, I would name two aftershaves above the scores of others in my den:
Chatillon Lux
Maol Grooming
The CL aftershaves all have wonderful scents, and my favorite three-season face feel (except winter). Maol is my favorite winter AS (in the non-menthol version), as it’s as “balmy” as any alcohol-based aftershave I own (or even my balms). My only issue with CL in the winter is the menthol can be a bit “cold” on my face. (But, of course, that’s why he makes, or at least used to make, salves.) My only issue with Maol is that the scents aren’t as special to me.
There are bunches of other great aftershaves, from Aqua Velva or Skin Bracer, to Derby City Chop Shop or Sebum Gold. These are simply the two that I find myself reaching for more than the others...
