I recently purchased some of this Skin Tonic direct from this highly venerable London chemists, for to use immediately after the shave. Scent: A slight rose scent with a slight smoky base oder of the Witch Hazel which I admit smells of Old World class. Feel: This does NOT sting, is water based and does a good job of cooling the skin after shaving. Comparison: like all D.R. harris products, they are utterly superb. Compares favourably with the harris Pink after Shave. CONCLUSION: I would highly recommend this product. The £11 price tag is not at all bad for 150ml bottle.
