    I know this isn't exactly an aftershave, but after my last haircut and neck shave, my barber splashed this on my hair and neck, and WOW! Smelled so good it made the other barbershop type scents I'd try before look like amateurs. The reason I put it under this forum is the ingredients look pretty similar (as I'd expect) to an aftershave and I'd consider using it as such. I couldn't find many reviews online so I came here looking for any insight you folks might have on this product. Cheers!

    Never used it, but Osage Rub states it can be used as a hair tonic, and many, self included, use it as an aftershave.

    Looking them up on the Web, and it look like they offer an actual aftershave.

    Yeah I saw that but I've tried the tonic and it's amazing! I'm sure the aftershave is pretty good too...

    Turns out there are a few mixed reviews one their pomade which is what they're famous for. Don't know if the tonic is worth the $24 CAD, but it is a 240ml bottle.

    I've heard some people use it as an aftershave. I've been using their pomades for a while and I'm about to buy both of the hair tonics.

    Probably why their pomade logo is a pig.

    It shows how ill-informed I am. I thought it was made in Canada!

    Maybe by Dutch or Flemish immigrants?

    Actually now that I think of it, the blue Hair Tonic smells a bit like the dry down version of Proraso green, without the eucalyptus I guess.
