This Vichy Soothing After Shave Balm was not what I expected as I assumed it would be a brisk, menthol-like, alcohol based refresher.  What I did get was a very soothing, non greasy, practically unscented lotion which felt good on my face.  I didn't have to use more than a few drops as it went on so easily.  This is another excellent product from a reliable manufacturer.
