This is the first after shave "milk" that I have ever purchased. The wonderful scent of roses makes this product a favorite of myself and my wife. She wants me to get some of St Sue's Savory Rose EDT. Of course I told her I would put it on my Christmas gift list! :happy108 The price is very good. A bit more than a drug store after shave product but that can be expected due the SR ASM being far superior to off the shelf drug store products. And it is a good deal less than most of the "name" AS products I see touted on B&B. The quality is not in doubt. Nice texture, wonderful smell, great looking bottle that my wife loves. My compliments Sue. Fights razor burn I would say that is so. I have had a slight irritation occasionally and the SCS SRASM has taken care of it in good time. I didn't really sense a big time cooling sensation with this product. I didn't really expect it and when I did not get it I was not upset. The rose scent is great. As it's name suggests it is "savory" and last more than just a few minutes. It linger around for a few hours at least. Scent is not over powering either. Just right. Over all I think it does its job very well. Great scent, has astringent qualities, helps with razor burn and cools a bit. Without alcohol the ASM provides good moisturizing qualities for my skin. No dryness. Face feels soft and smooth. Has no alcohol so there is no alcohol burn. I do want to mention that I discussed this product with Sue before buying it. Mentioned that I use Thayer's Toner as an astringent after each shave. Sue suggested that I forgo the Thayer's when I use Savory Rose ASM because it contains witch hazel. Of course I did use both on two occassions and found that I did get what was similar to "alcohol burn". When I used the Savory Rose by itself everything was fine, no burn. See, it pays to listen to a woman in such circumstances.
SCS Savory Rose was not as good as I expected To me, everything was above average; however, it was not as great as I expected. The scent was great, if you really like rose; otherwise it was just fair. Healing eas acceptable, but I had better. I will say it moisturized and absorbed well, keeping the face smooth. I probably would not buy it again.
