First use of MacDuff's aftershave. I normally prefer alcohol based aftershaves, but I find MacDuffs formulation refreshing and soothing. I am still feeling out the Strathcona scent in aftershave form. I love the Strathcona soap scent pre, in use, and post. However, the scent profile of the aftershave doesn't quite match up with the soap, at least to my nose. It is still an enjoyable scent, and I think it starts to align more as dry down progresses. I have to remember to back off on the amount of soap needed with the Strathcona base. Just a small amount renders wonderful amounts of lather.
