I didn't use after shave back then, but I always use Geo. F. Trumper's skin food or Castle Forbes Lime post-shave balm these days. These products your face well, leaving a mild scent. However, I avoid EdP so as not to fumigate innocents who dare venture within my blast radius or contrail.
I'm a balm guy myself but here lately, the alcohol with a little balm after is just heaven!! It'll be for real in the summer when it gets muggy.
