    Where's your write-up? Couldn't find it :)
    Here's my short rambling.

    image.jpeg Alright, ten minutes post application...

    Since, I read @Darkbulb 's commits on the great skinfeel of Barbus, I looked at the ingredients, and suppose Glycerin and Castor Oil are behind why my face feels so nice right now! The feel upon application was very soothing, no burn at all. The menthol aspect of this AS is quite subdued, but the scent is very nice. Mrs. Samurai says it is very similar to the LaCoste Pour Homme (Red package) EdC that I wore when I met her, so I will take that as gospel. The scent is woodsy and herbal with some underlying citrus sweetness. Thanks to @Rufus T , I am able to say it's kind of similar to Myrsol Blue also. I have never tried Floid Blue, so I can't comment on that. Back to the skinfeel, I would say it is quite nice. This AS has earned a spot in my rotation! Thanks Darkbulb for pointing it out a few weeks ago, and calling me out to try it. ;)

    So does that mean you're keeping both bottles? ;)
