Aftershave Wax

Pros: scent, function, scent, feeling
Cons: none - though 'wax' is not an accurate term
"Wow" is probably the single best descriptor for this product.

I bought it on a whim to tip the contents of my Shopping Cart towards Free Shipping - and boy am I glad I did. When the package arrived it smelt divine! I couldn't figure out why - 'is this suggestive selling by the online retailer who cards the package with a scent' I wondered. I unfurled the bubble-wrap and quickly sourced the culprit, a little leakage from the Razorock AS Wax. So those fragrant notes were all its doing. Wow! Even the better half loved it - and she hates most my shaving gear scents (hates the Cella and the Proraso!).

So "Wow" to the scent. But I was keen to use it in anger, and once I did I found that's exactly what it doesn't do…make things angry. I've persevered with the austere measures of Alum and Proraso Lotion - yeah the sting's supposed to build character and all but really…why do the whole man-up thing when instead you can get a better response from your skin without the fanfare. Just a small amount goes a long way. I have fairly oily skin and yet this 'wax' just sinks in, you can feel your face drinking it...and licking its lips.

Oh yeah the only 'con' and it's a pretty lame one is that this product is less a "wax" and more a "cream".

I concede it might just be a good match for my skin but this stuff seems tailored made for me - the right scent and the right result. This stuff only dropped a point because 10 is reserved for perfection and I've not been around long enough to experience perfect yet. ;)

Pros: Best aftershave I have ever used.
Cons: Pricey - but not compared to other stuff.
This product is the best aftershave I have ever used. It clears up any razor burn, it isn't too greasy, just moist enough. Only dab a very small amount (the tips of 4 fingers) in my face to cover the whole thing. Price is pretty good - based on how little is needed.

I am considering buying this for friends as gifts, because I want them to enjoy this stuff too.

As far as the scent - it is a bit medicinal, but I find that once I put it on, it smells a little different than in the jar. It smells like a licorice with a hint of orange, and importantly - my wife really likes the smell. The smell lasts for a few hours, but def. not all day. They do offer some other scents now if that is what is keeping you from it.

Pros: Price, Packaging, Scent, Performance, Efficiancy
Excellent product. I find the Patchouli scent a little strong for my liking, but overall it's one of the best AS products I have ever used.A little goes a long, long, long way. Beautiful container and application method. Put a dab on your finger and it's enough for my entire face and neck.

Pros: Unique scent, very moisturizing
Cons: scent is hit or miss if you like it. It really grew on me after a bit.
This one is unique. A little product goes a long ways. I think the smell grew on me after awhile. Kind of sage-like and when I first tried it I thought of Italian Seasoning on pizza. After I have used it awhile though I smell the unique components of this. I overall would try this again due to its uniqueness.. It does moisturize very well and really has no alcohol burn. I am curious what the other Razorock aftershave waxes are like. I'l give this one a little longer but it really is a good aftershave. Wax.. not even, it seems like a good balm.
