So I got a shower, shaved my head and slapped this stuff on........woo! Menthol, no burn, and I think the cooling sensation stayed with me for at least a half hour. The scent, is not BRUT as I had thought, it's warm and not heavy like say, Tabac shave soap. I'm guessing the virgina tobacco is what I'm smelling, this pleasant scent will stay with you for a long time it doesn't seem to fade. Makes me think of being in a cabin, with your wife for as romantic weekend with out the kids, fire's rolling and it's cold outside. Nice winter time scent. Also it would be nice if they would add a limiter, at $33 I think it should have one.

Nice ain't it? I love it. Its one of my top 3 aftershaves!! LOVE IT!

I like it, it's nice, but I'm not sure it represents how I precieve myself smelling? you know what I mean? I'm more into earthy scents, and I have a feeling I'll be spending more money until I find that one that fits me. I was looking for something I could use everyday (although I think Alt-Innsbruck could be used everyday, it's certainly not offensive), not sure that this is the one, I'll keep using it as these are only my first impressions, I may grow to love it. I really like the menthol I didn't think I would but I could see this becoming addictive.

I can't add much to what has already been said, but I know I really loved the small decant that I "had". If I didn't already own enough aftershave to last several lifetimes, I would like to get hold of some more Alt-Innsbruck. I not only enjoyed the scent, but as I recall it also left my skin feeling nice and smooth.
