    Is the menthol really strong in the Proraso green after shave, please.

    On a scale of zero to ten, zero being none and ten being a Stirling Glacial, I put Proraso at a three.

    I don't think so at all. I can't really figure out what it smells like. But I like it!

    I have the white balm and the red splash so far. I plan on getting the green splash some day but I've noticed that the aftershaves don't really smell like the soap at all and it seems like that's also true of the green splash. At least everyone still seems to think that it's a great scent. The red splash smells like a generic cologne to me and the white balm smells like clean laundry mixed with black pepper.

    Okay, that makes sense now that I think about it. Thanks!

    It is my oldest daughter's favorite of all my aftershaves. I like it.

    Your skin deserves it. It is one of the most soothing aftershaves I have ever used. And with just that hint of menthol, it feels great.

    Used it three or four times now. I like it a lot. Menthol Monday's are a good thing. :D

    I have both the Proraso Green after shave splash and the Proraso Green post shave balm. What I can't figure out is that the balm smells exactly (to my nose) like the Proraso Green soap or cream, but the splash has a scent all its own. I like it though. Used the cream and splash this morning.

    They both do a terrific job of soothing the skin. The balm is readily absorbed into the skin and the splash has a great menthol kick and nice fade. Quality stuff.

    @Norcalnewb says that the AS scent is Eucalyptus with some lime. Works for me!

    I've been window shopping for months now, adding the green aftershave to my cart but never following through. These days, I mostly just try to stick to buying things that I really need but the glowing reviews of the green aftershave make it sound so enticing.

    After a shave with the Green cream or C O Bigelow nothing smells or feels better. Used it this morning.

    It's not a strong scent, but very pleasant to my nose. Leaves a great face feel that last all day. Though it's called "Lotion" it goes on like a Splash.
