Review - Bootlegger's Arctic Lime
Background
Bootlegger's Aftershaves are a product of the good members of the Badger and Blade Forum community, with the initiative spearheaded by @OkieStubble, who I am delighted to see has joined our Aussie Forum.
The Bootlegger's concept is to blend together a combination of drug-store aftershaves to produce a derivative product, hopefully with synergy such the blend results in a final product that is superior to the sum of its parts.
Recipe
Scent and Performance
- 1 part Jeris Osage Rub
- 1 part Pinaud Lime Sec cologne
For me, this "green" variant blends together more homogeneously than Green Freeze. The Pinaud Lime Sec cologne is sweet and vibrant, and matches really well with the more austere medicinal notes of the Osage Rub, resulting in a nicely balanced scent. I would rate the scent of this blend as having medium longevity as an aftershave splash.
The face feel is very good with this blend. It is a very refreshing aftershave, with a nice alcohol bite and a good menthol hit.
Summary
More great work from @OkieStubble. Arctic Lime is perfect for hot weather, or anytime you feel like a refreshing pick me up.
I've got those ingredients and an empty hot sauce bottle with a cap and dispenser top! I'm going to make some!
