    As anyone tried it? I'm looking for an AS milk or balm that is VERY soothing and moisturizing. The lavender scent peaks my curiosity but I don't want it to conflict with my cologne.

    works pretty well, but it is a bit more sticky, tackier than I like.
    You could try diluting it with some witch hazel, which is what I do when I use it.

    I haven't tried it, but good things are written about a product produced by our resident Queen :1respect.

    I have used DR Harris Milk for years. I think most of the milk products produced are fashioned after Harris Milk. My current favorite it SCS Lavender Milk. I use it more often than DR Harris. It's great stuff.

    Kristian,

    Thanks. I've already tried it and for whatever reason, it isn't for me. Good stuff, just not for me.

    I prefer the TSD milk personally. The SCS is fine and works well but the lavender scent is disgusting IMO. I had the edt and sent it back. If you enjoy her scents then the milks will be good for you.

    SCS makes great aftershave milks and are my personal favorite. To me, they are just the right amount of soothing and moisturizing - not too thick like a balm and not too thin. I like the lavender and Bay Rum w/Twist. Both have nice, mellow scents.

    James,

    How long does the lavender scent last? Do you think it would be strong enough and last long enough to clash with a cologne?

    Steve - No, I don't think the Lavender scent is strong enough or lasts long enough to clash with a cologne. I don't have an exact time, but I don't seem to notice it very long after I use it.

    I used the Tonys Choice balm, sorry no knowledge of the milk. was not a fan of the scent but the balm worked pretty good. If you are a balm guy give it a try. The worst that happens is you re sell it on a shaving forum.

    SCS makes my favorite milk. I haven't tried the Lavender but the Parma Violet is very nice.
