I bought this before Proraso red aftershave was easier to find and it was the closest to their sandalwood scent, albeit more woodsy/earthy. I figured that since it was good for a new beard that it wouldn’t hurt on clean shaven skin- and I was right. You don’t need much, but it smells great and lasts, even with a small quantity. So even as an aftershave balm, 5 stars.
Based on the smell and texture, I ran it through my hair rather than my typical goo this morning to see if it would tame my post shower cowlick. Worked like a charm- just the right amount of hold without any crispiness or oily/greasy texture. Everyone’s hair is different, but when your hair looks good (such as it is, work with me here folks), and you don’t have competing scents on your noggin, that’s a small life win.
I’ve seen some remarks about the scent being too strong, and with all personal products and body chemistries, your mileage will always vary, but a pro tip with any Proraso product is that less is more.
I decided to give this a try based on their Shaving soap.
I am glad I did.
This, while on the expensive side, is worth it.
Very pleasant scent (like old time barber as others have said). Wood and Spice.
The scent is noticeable, but not overpowering and lasts through the day.
It mellows through the day, but is still there at day's end.
I wouldn't recommend cologne on top of this though
As far as balm factor, it definitely softens the initial beard growth and takes away that itch factor.
Helps the hair lay down and keeps it under control as it grows.
I think I will continue to use this even after the initial stages.
Definitely a noticeable difference in beard softness
As someone else said, I wish it didn't have the plastic cap on the glass bottle, but that's a small complaint, not enough to remove a star for.
If you like the Proraso shaving soap, give this a try
I'm a big time Bay Rum fan but this Proraso is awesome. Reminds me of the late 60's early 70's trips to the barbershope. The balm itself works great. After a shower & shave, a small dab ( instructions say "a dime size amount" though I use a tad bit more) makes me beard soft, combable and best of all, she likes the scent. I WILL be buying more :)
This is a great product, I love it.
It’s smooth and you only need a little bit, soothing on the face and beard, I Love the scent, it is the best product I don’t want to use any othe products that cover the scent.
A little layrite on top and this on the face and neck, superior product.
Smells great and feels wonderful.
