Fellows, I'm in the mood for Sandalwood ...
Aftershave, not balm. I'm not much for newfangled things and have a pretty short shortlist being DR Harris and TOBS. T&H only do a balm. Trumpers just a Cologne (which I might well get to complement).
TOBS tout theirs as patchouli and vetiver with a powdery musk and rose. To be, that sounds divine. DR Harris has the patchouli, but also eucalyptus and camphor, and some light florals, altogether sounding more like a treatment than a straight-up aftershave. TOBS also does an alcohol-free, which is certainly interesting, but probably not for me. I like to feel dry with aftershave and don't want to feel residually oily or mushy.
So, DR Harris or TOBS? What's your experience, chaps?
Or, is there something else out there? I see Proraso, but I've always found Proraso to be a bit sticky and clammy afterwards and read that their Sandalwood has Shea Oil in it. Face palm. There might well be other good choices out there. Thoughts?
