Item Description
DR Harris aftershaves are among my favorites. Marlborough ranks right up there. I like the scent well enough to spring for the soap and the cologne. I use Marlborough all four seasons.
Shop around. The price can vary $20-25 a 100 ml bottle. (ed. by that I mean you can expect to pay $30 to $55 a bottle).
It has some alcohol in it, so there is a short-lived and mild burn. The cooling sensation is no menthol, but it is followed by a medicinal effect that I find very comforting. It has healing properties besides a glorious scent.
It stays close to the skin and lasts a reasonable amount of time. I apply the cologne which is good for a day at work. As I recall, the AS lasts at least a couple of hours.
There is more cedar than sandalwood. They claim a blend of other woods. I don't doubt that. It is more than cedar and sandalwood, but I cannot identify them.
I have heard comments that the scent is like ashtrays or stale cigarette smoke. I find that silly, but there is no accounting for the sense of smell.
