Great shave with MdC with a nice cooling finish from good ol' Stetson.

Stetson has yet to enter my nostrils. What's the general idea behind the scent?

snooting@wetshav.ing · 3 pts · 56d (1 reply)

It's a classic western "manly" type scent. I get a little bit of citrus, sage, and lavender with some earthy/woody notes underneath.

Very slight cooling in the "Cooling Moisture" formula as well, which I enjoy. It also has a bit more in the ingredients beside just alcohol and fragrance (like aloe, castor oil, etc.) which gives a nice face feel.

Definitely recommend it for the price. I've only tried the "Cooling Moisture" so can't speak to the original aftershave. I'd expect the scent to be similar.

I'll have to keep a look out. I have a soft spot for mass produced aftershave products.

A little irritation today compared to yesterday. Perhaps I was a little hasty to declare my improved shaving skills yesterday!

  • Brush: Zenith B44 28mm Boar
  • Razor: J.A. Henckels Friodur 472 13/16" Full Hollow Square Point
  • Lather: Ariana & Evans - Asian Pear - Soap
  • Toner: Thayers - Coconut - Toner
  • Aftershave: Ariana & Evans - Asian Pear - Aftershave

3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


This was a test shave for the Friodur 472 that I honed for Environmental_Gap380. I thought that it performed magnificently. (To be understated about it.)
