Recommend something COOLING for summer?

[Neognosis]

I'm about to go get me some Proraso aftershave splash, hoping it's nice and cooling for those hot, sticky summer evenings.

Can anyone recommend some other options I might want to consider?

I haven't used Proraso spalsh myself, but Vitos Colonia ICE was as cool as the juice is blue. I've read it mixes well with 444 balm for something even cooler.

the ultimate cooling=Osage Rub
Theres classics also like Skin Bracer (very cooling)Barbasol Brisk.Aqua Velva
I have the Proraso splash,and yes,its pretty cooling.

Try everything in the previous posts and try Alcolado Glacial, you will love them all.

D.R. Harris Arlington and Floid Blue are other options.

The others mentioned above are also great recommendations. Proraso, Arlington, and Floid Blue are my top three summer aftershave splashes.

Barbasol Pacific Rush. Available at Dollar General stores in the US.

I'll second that one, I think it's my favorite cheap hot weather AS, somewhere around $1.75 a bottle.

Try Osage rub with menthol crystals added. Ouch!!

Blue Line Menthol Balm by SCS is very cooling. Shave with Vostok soap 1st for a real freeze.

Vostok when shaving and your favorite menthol alcohol splash after...they recently released a vostok as balm which I am sure is amazing..

Another vote for Skin Bracer.

I think Floid Vigoroso is the coldest thing I've used so far, although Skin Bracer isn't bad either. Haven't tried Osage yet though.

Aqua Velva Ice Blue. Simply fantastic!

Alcolado Glacial. That is not cool anymore, that is just freezing cold.

Talibeard, you're buying it from European seller?

There is an Asian supermarket 15km from here that has it (sometimes). They carry nothing else shaving related apart from that and 3 kinds of Florida Water. Lots of Dutch-Carribean stores sell the Alcolado Glacial overhere.

The main reason I like it is that it has tons of menthol but no eucalyptus, which I can't stand, and also works wonders with insect bites and plant stings.

My hot weather choice's are Osage Rub and Aqua Velva !!!

I was looking for online retailer selling Alcolado in Europe. Found that European distributor is based in the Netherlands but they only do wholesale.
Anyway a friend should help me out with some Osage Rub so I'm sorted
