Aftershave suggestion?

I'm ordering some blades (Personnas Red) from west coast shaving and I was thinking about adding an aftershave to the order. I currently just use Nivea. I have tried a sample of trumpers skinfood which I like. Not sure if I should go with a splash or balm. I enjoy nivea but I may be in the market for something else if it is good. My four creams and soaps in rotation currently are Proraso cream, Trumpers Violet cream, TOBS Avocado cream, and Tabac Soap.

Proraso might be it, love the stuff. I have the balm, I might try the splash one day but I am affraid of the menthol!
 
I use both a splash and a balm on every shave.

You should get brands that match whatever soaps or creams you're using now. If you like Trumpers Skin Food, and you have Trumpers soap, then go with that one.

Proraso, TOBS and Tabac all make matching products ... but you may need to order from another vendor for some of them.
 
I vote for Harris Pink. It's mild in scent, light in feel, and does a nice job finishing a shave. It's particularly great for summer, although I find I can use it most times of the year, save for the coldest and dryest days of winter.
 
Tabac AS. There is nothing as soothing as this aftershave. Burn, redness, it's all gone after a minute or so. Plus, it smells very manly.
