I can't speak highly enough of his products and he does customs as well. The stock AS splash was a little too heavy on the glycerin/witch hazel for my taste so I worked with him on some customs which also included menthol.

Exactly what I was looking for and the scents are fantastic.

These are heavy on glycerin? This sounds like it is exactly what I'm looking for.  I've been sampling sampling sampling away and finally found some splashes that I find very moisturizing (DR Harris, Floid, WSP).  Perhaps I should give these Chatillon Lux products a try? 2oz huh? Hmm.

Definitely more glycerin than Floid, although I can't speak to the other two. I will say that the 2oz size comes from the heavier concentration of ingredients in the aftershave. You don't see water on our ingredient list so that a little goes a long way. I'm not saying it's better because of that, because that doesn't make it perform any better, simply that we figured a lot of people who would pick it up would probably have a lot of gear, and this takes up less shelf space.

hawns is being modest - Chatillon Lux products are better! (IMO)  These are really great post shave products and conditioning, moisturizing great smelling, great feeling, am I leaving anything out?  I'm a big fan. Happy2

These sounds like they are on my list to try. Typically, splashes dry out my skin as I have very dry skin, but I like splashes because many of them have scents that linger and I appreciate the post-shave sting. Unfortunately, many splashes that do not have some moisturizing ingredients and are just straight up aftershaves (Fine or Folsom for instance) and they do not work for me. It'd be interesting to have another brand that produces aftershaves which put back a good amount of moisture so yours sound great. I wish more aftershaves provided glycerin and other moisturizing ingredients like this.

As a life-long Midwesterner, I am morally (and perhaps legally?) obligated to be as modest and understated as possible. It is our lot in life.
