All I can say is this AS is awesome. I forgot how great this smells. I used to use the hair gel that came in a tube some 30 yrs ago when well I had alot more hair LOL. I always loved the scent. What I love also is the staying power this has. I can still smell it 3-4 hrs later. Feels great on the skin. Some al's shave cream,my ikon OC,sharpedge blade,start to finish just an awesome shave. I'm a happy club "man'.
