Fine Snake Bite After Shaving Tonic Review
Fine Accoutrements Snake Bite After Shaving Tonic is an alcohol and menthol based aftershave splash. In fact, the only other ingredient is water.
This was one of the first few aftershaves that I bought, and to be honest, I had zero intentions of actually trying it. I bought it for the bottle! It looks fantastic, an old look with amazing slogans on it: “The weak become strong, the lazy become lively, and the meek become leaders of men”. This is exactly the kind of thing that I wanted sitting on my counter in the shaving den.

I literally didn’t even try it for a month. At the time I did not understand why anyone would want an aftershave with any kick, but then the bottle started calling to me. “Contents flammable, keep away from women and children.”
It’s tough to argue with a “Guaranteed tenfold increase in vigor, bravery and pluck.” Now I still don’t even know what “pluck” is, but I was feeling vigorous and just wanting to try it was already increasing my bravery.
I was tired on the couch one day and needed to shave, and all of a sudden I thought of the Fine Snake Bite Aftershave. It was time to give it a try.
I grabbed my Edwin Jagger DE86 that already had one great shave with a Voskhod blade in it. I figured this was a prefect set up to test it out.
As I completed my head shave the anticipation was starting to creep in. I did my full after shave routine and it was time for the splash. I applied it and it felt great. A mild tingle, a cooling sensation, I was already feeling a little more awake.
I proceeded to shave my face, and I have learned over time that my head is a little tougher. It took a few different aftershaves for me to learn this so I wasn’t quite expecting the difference when I applied the Fine Snake Bite to my face.
I liberally applied the aftershave to my face. As my face started to go numb, the overpowering scent of menthol went up my nose and into my eyes. I just stood there with my eyes forced closed, breathing in the menthol. After a couple deep relaxing breaths I regained my motor functions and began to slowly open my eyes.
As the blur cleared I noticed a faint crack of a smile still on my face. As I wiped the tears from my eyes (it was the menthol, I swear) I realized that I really enjoyed this.
The scent out of the bottle is basically just alcohol, and the menthol comes out a bit as it’s applied. The light scent of menthol dissipates fairly quickly which makes it pretty neutral.
I highly recommend the Fine Accoutrements Snake Bite After Shaving Tonic. Sometimes I even use it as a splash after a shower on days I don’t shave, I just like how it feels. The Fine Snake Bite Aftershave opened up a new world for me of the intense aftershaves, and even if you don’t like it then it will still look great as a decoration.
