If you want a good cooling gel, Nancy Boy's Cooling Aftershave Gel fits the bill nicely and smells incredible.
If you're looking for a widely available splash with a cooling effect, Aqua Velva is hard to beat.

+1. The menthol kick of Aqua Velva is awesome. I also use Nivea's Cooling Balm. Not as much of a menthol bomb, but more moisturizing.
prorasos aftershave stuff is pretty good too
+1. Proraso AS splash and the AS balm are absolutely superb. Extremely chilly, too.
I always have to pimp Osage Rub. I have pretty sensitive skin, and it does me well. NOTHING equals the cooling (freezing?) sensation. (it is a splash, not a gel...)
I have sensitive skin and Aqua Velva and Proraso are two of my favorite aftershaves.
444 aftershave balm
Here's a cheap solution: cold water, followed by a neutral hypoallergenic balm. The cooling sensation you're after is actually caused by an irritant, which is best avoided when endowed with sensitive skin.
Lately, I have been combining the Proraso Pre/Post with Floïd and the La Toja A/S splash and....wow!
I would definitely give Lucky Tiger Aftershave/Face Tonic a try. Just tried it for the first time. It's just a bit cooling, very soothing and certainly did not feel to harsh for sensitive skin - It's a a liquid
Anherb.
It's a gel, provides a seriously cooling menthol blast, and while not a PURE sandalwood fragrance, it contains sandalwood EO. Great stuff.
If you could tell us what you've tried and had react to your skin, that might help us better suggest a splash or balm to help you.

If you are looking for a gel try Everyman Jack Cooling Gel. I actually just used it today and the price can't be beat at $4.99. It's got a really big menthol/cooling kick and absorbs well. You can get all of their shaving products at Target.
Lately I'm lovin Floid Blue.
I have a sample of that I really like - I should pick up a bottle.
I bought Aqua Velva Ice Sport because I wanted a cool, summer a/s. It's an alternate to the traditional Aqua Velva scent and if you don't like it, you're not out that much money.
I favor Ice Sport over the original (as does my wife).
You might like Every Man Jack cooling gel. It has a lot of menthol.
