All of them. :lol:

Actually, not far off. I'd be focusing on the high-end ones (Penhaligons, Floris, AdP, Castle Forbes) but want to compare them to others as well to make sure I get the best.

I doubt that Musgo Real and Speick would fall out of my rotation though. :thumbup1:
 
Santa Maria Novella lavender splash is at the top of my list. I justify the expense because I haven't found anything else that has its combination of function and scent, but I do find myself constantly wondering what might be a more affordable alternative. Harris Pink is a pretty good runner up, and is a relative bargain when purchased in the 500ml size.
 
If money were no object, I would try out Penhaligon's aftershave splashes. I'm tempted but the price tag is holding me off for now.

Castle Forbes balm, SMN before/after cream I own both of these and have no problem with spending the money on them because they work the best for me

SMN lavander splash (i have a nice sized sample, but will def buy in the future)
Cade splash
Speik

I was very dissapointed with both Penns and Trumpers splashes.
An aftershave balm/splash IMO should serve to soothe your irritated skin and appease your nose. I would put the Trumpers Splash as a very expensive Pinaud with a more refined scent
 
I may be really low class, but Nivea ASB is my favourite. Having said that, I am fast becoming a fan of D R Harris's AS Milk.
If money were no object I'd love to try Floris's AS splashes and balms, but at over $100 AUD a bottle I can't justify it at the moment.

I would finally be able to try the Japanese aftershaves I have been curious about.

If you have a Japanese or Asian market near you, you might be able to find them there. I purchased Mandom and Lucido in San Diego CA.
