To preface, I am not a cologne wearer and up until the past couple of years even avoided AS in favor of straight Witch Hazel. I have finally seen the light on the AS splashes and love a good burn + menthol but do prefer something that dissipates rather quickly or on the more subtle side.
Having said that, I recently broke down and picked up the infamous Alt Innsbruck. Tobacco, menthol, what's not to like? Add all the rave reviews from community members and I had to see the magic for myself.
I used it after my shave this morning and absolutely love the face feel, strong burn and the lingering menthol. My question beomes: how much is enough? I used my normal splash amount (I would guess somewhere between half and a full teaspoon) and this stuff is STRONG! As in really STRONG!
The scent is a good one, albeit on the sweet side but I for one really need to dial it back.
How about the rest of you? Thoughts on AI and best use? Love it? Hate it? Tips and tricks?
