Issey Mikaye after shave balm

[bald1]

I rarely see this very soothing alcohol free balm mentioned. When it is, it usually is in a discussion lamenting the reformulation old "milk" formulas. I've been using this stuff for years although I do have some scent free Aramis Lab Series razor relief balm on the shelf too.

Anyone else tried it or have added it to their standard kit?

As an aside my favorite colognes are, in no particular order:

Issey Miyake pour homme
Hugo Boss Baldessarini
Gucci Envy for men
Guerlain Vetiver
Aramis (original)
Dolce & Gabbana pour homme

Lots of looks but no comments. Mmmmm...... No one out there ever even tried this stuff? Folks are missing out then.

Love it. One of my favorite "designer" aftershaves. Gotta find a new source for it as the current bottle is depressingly empty.

You can get Issey Miyaki products (including Intense Shaving Balm) from "Strawberrynet.com".

+1 for Strawberrynet. I've made 6 purchases with them over the past few years including for the subject of this thread

i have been using the stuff for years, better yet, it's my 1 of 2 aftershaves (tabac splash being the 2nd)
exelent moisturizing capability and great skin calming.
no alcohol though, and no menthol or the likes, leaves a very light smell. goes great with their perfume
