Good aftershave
This is a wonderful aftershave. I have used Nivea for the past few years but missed the great smell of Gillette. I used to used their aftershave gel until the stores stopped carrying it and I moved on. But I recently bought a Braun 790 electric razor (I am currently training me face) and wanted a nice "stingy" aftershave to sooth my skin. I was intrigued by the Rum based aftershaves but didn't care for the price. I saw that Gillette is still on Amazon and went for it. I wanted an alcohol based aftershave so I got a 6 pack of the Cool Wave. I gave my dad and brother in law each a bottle and have been happy ever since. The smell is very very nice, I get complements. Its stingy enough to sooth any burn I have but definitely has some conditioner in the mix. The smell is very strong for 20 minutes or so but good for public use once you get to where you are going. I would love to see their products back at the big box stores at some point.

REAL after shave for men who not scared of a little sting. After shave like is SHOULD BE.
Great after shave for guys such as me who like the sting of alcohol. Smells great and not overpowering. It also moisturizes my face. I was very happy to buy a bulk of 6 so I can have this for a long time. In a world now where you have sissy men who want sissy no-alcohol after shave this Gillette is a great buy. I'm very glad Gillette realizes there are non-sissy men that are not scared of a little sting in their after shave.I believe that Gillette has another scent but I don't see it. I hope Gillette makes the other scent available for purchase in a bulk package. Again thank you Gillette for realizing that there are some young men who are old-school shavers who had tough fathers who thought their sons how to shave properly and use a REAL after shave such as Gillette. Nowadays we have too many sissy men using after shave balms, greasy creams or nothing at all because they are scared of a little sting. That is shameful.Nonetheless A GREAT PRODUCT. Thank you Gillette. Will buy another bulk box again real soon.

Excellent product becoming hard to find in stores.
I’ve been using this product for years. The aroma has the right balance where it’s not overwhelming and yet is very appealing. Lately though I’m having trouble finding it in the stores. Thankfully, Amazon has it available online.

Aftershave for men
Cool Wave is made in France, home of the most expensive perfumes in the world. It is considerably more expensive than barbershop aftershaves.However, the perfume designers took off their pantyhose when they made this one. The scent is clean and refreshing and the alcohol content provides a satisfying burn on freshly scraped skin. It is an aftershave for men.Amazon's bulk pack gives the best price on this product. Period. Don't believe it? Check your local retailer.I've been shaving for 40 years and using Cool Wave occasionally for the past two years. I like it. Because it is more than twice as expensive as barbershop products, I've been debating whether or not to make it my regular. That debate is not finished. In the meantime, I appreciate Amazon's terrific deal on this product.

Nice scent, great price
I first found this product at the local big-box store years ago and loved it as a more reasonably priced everyday alternative to my husband's expensive aftershaves. We both like the scent a lot and appreciate that it is an aftershave, not the significantly more expensive cologne. A couple of years ago I checked amazon and they not only have it at a cheaper price, I learned about their subscribe and save program and save even more! Considering how expensive so many of these products have become (and that some of them have eliminated aftershave and only offer cologne), we will continue to buy Cool Wave and would recommend it to others.

Decent value
It's getting hard to find these local to me anymore. They're all switching to gels and stuff that smells horrible imo. Six bottles at a decent price will last me quite a while.

The only aftershave my husband uses
This product is hard to find in the stores. As my hubby ONLY uses this after shave, I was desperate. I love the scent, too. Thanks, Amazon for coming to the rescue.There was a bit of a wait for delivery - that's not a complaint just an observation that if you're low, don't wait until you use the last drop before ordering. Amazon's delivery is usually spot on, if not early, and we were in the midst of the beginning of the pandemic, so it could be a third party issue or the overwhelm of online shopping.
