I was very excited to get this as I love trying new aftershaves out and new soaps and cremes..

so I grabbed my new straight .. lathered up and took to shaving.. still not rushing through but anxious I finished my shave and then splashed a generous amount of the aftershave on my face.. and HOLY COW does this stuff have a bite.. I couldnt believe how long the burn lasted and how much it did burn. and to add insult to injury.. Everyone in the house banned me to the basement till the "aroma" had subsided a bit.

I know that this is a highly regarded scent and brand but I was really disappointed.. but then perhaps it will grow on me

so I am off to find another bay rum aftershave.. wish me luck
