I haven't seen a lot written about this brand whether it be the AS the soap or the creams. After trying the soap and loving it, I just bought some of their AS splash from vintagescent.com and am looking forward to trying it. I hope that it is good because it's about the same price as Speick splash, but you get 50% more with La Toja. I guess I just wanted to see whether there is any love for the splash or the balm out here. Thanks!

Used today for the 1st time after shaving with the LaToja cream. Also purchased from Vintage Scent.
A good blast of menthol, mild alcohol sizzle.
My face felt great for a few hours afterward too.
The scent lasted a few hours on me.
A crisp "green" scent.
Reminded me of a cross between the "heavy" scent of Musgo Real splash and "sharp" scent of Proraso splash. (sorry, best I could come up with)
I like it so far.

Leons prices are hard to beat even to Australia.... Seeing as i just bought the Floid A/S off him tonight for $20AUD shipped! The La Toja a/s looks interesting, i do love menthol kick's from splashes.

I was under the impression that there was no menthol in the LT splash. On the reviews page one person ranks its "cooling" effect as a N/A and the other lists it as a 4... Strange.
Yep, it has menthol.
Leon's site and the LaToja site both state menthol.

Amazing stuff. Im out right now but will order more from Leon when I can order a few other items.
Good stuff! I'm almost out, need to track down another bottle.
Its my favorite A/S.
I love using this one on Saturdays.
Its versatile. Classy and Casual. The scent lingers nicely and my face feels like a million bucks.

I usually rotate between the Proraso splash and the La Toja splash.
Both have a great cooling effect and it's hard to choose a favourite - so I use them in turn

You guys are making me excited! I can't wait to get mine in the mail!
I don't really get any menthol from it at all, however it is a very nice splash with a great scent that lingers on me a for an hour or so. You made a excellent choice.

La Toja has finally arrived! It smells great and I can't wait for tomorrows shave!
I got some in the post this morning! Put a bit on the back of my hand- the scent is amazing! Smells very much like Musgo, which is one of my very favorites. Can't wait till tomorrow!

I can't seem to put my finger on the scent, and neither can my family, but we all agree that it smells very familiar. It smells great, and I was thinking that maybe it smelled like Farenheit Cologne, but I don't have a bottle to compare. Anybody know?
Went with the La Toja shave this morning. 
I primarily get a fresh, woodsy, evergreen kind of scent along with some other things.

I agree, I would say it closely resembles Drakar
So, Do we have any suppliers that ship to, or are in the US?

Looking to score some.

I ordered from here http://vintagescent.com. The shipping is really cheap, I think I paid 2 euros, should be able to get the splash under $20 with shipping.
Cheers,

That's where I got mine. It came to $17 I think. It's a good deal when you consider how large the bottle is too.
