Can someone recommend an orange-citrus after shave splash?

    I used to use the TSD Dreamsicle splash but it is no longer offered anymore. Has anyone tried the Orange scent or perhaps a different brand orange blossom-citrus? St. Charles used to sell a Mediterranean Citrus Splash that was great, but it is no longer available on their website. Thanks!

    I have never heard of Musgo Real Orange Amber. It is a cologne that can also be used as a after shave splash? I found it at Amazon.com for $30 with free shipping.

    TSD has Orange EO splash and some like Lucky Tiger splash.

    DUH!!!!! You are looking for an after shave splash - this is a cologne, my bad. See, you should have waited for the experts!

    Mind you, you could use a simple witch hazel as an after shave and then apply something like this as a cologne.

    The Lucky Tiger I have certainly has the initial, but short lived, orange scent but is more along the lines of a balm than a splash to me

    It left my face a bit too sticky, but given its clear, watery consistency, for me it's a splash but I can see why it would feel like a balm.

    :) Howdy! Have you considered making your own? Maybe add some Orange Citrus EO to a non-scented splash if you can't find what you want in a commercial product. Just a thought! Always, Gene

    I still have Dreamsicle.
    It's no longer on the list in the store. It wasn't a big seller.

    When I run out, I'd be happy to do a custom blend of orange and vanilla, if you'd like.

    You say splash, I say balm, let's call the whole thing off ;)

    BTW - when is a splash a splash a balm a balm and what is this balsam thing some are using?

    If you have oily skin you will find that Lucky Tiger AS will not fit, If not then you can buy it at Vitacost for very cheap.
    You could try Jasons Vitamin C Toner, I use it and love the smooth Orange smell and it is full of Witch Hazel, Aloe and other good stuff and not to sticky.

    I just bought Florida Water as you recommended. The reviews at Amazon.com were all very positive and even if I don't like it, it was just $5.43 for a 7.5 oz. bottle and free shipping. It kills me to buy after shave splashes that sell for over $30 and then if you don't like them, you're stuck.
    It is also good to know that the Queen of Blades still has Dreamsicle in stock.
