I used it when my wife gave me an AOS medium size travel kit. I used it at home in the beginning because, well, I didn't have anything else. Then I bought other stuff and now only use the pre-shave oil when I am traveling. I find it to be too thick. I never used much to begin with but it always ended up leaving a residue in the sink that my wife would complain about. Add to that it is very expensive. I now buy a 2 oz bottle of Caswell Massey for a little less than the AOS 1 oz. bottle. And it doesn't leave a film in the sink and my wallet is just a little bit heavier. When my travel bottle runs out, I bought a 1 oz. bottle to put the Caswell Massey oil in to pack in my travel kit.
