It's not aftershave, it's cologne.

Why do Irish and British people call cologne aftershave?

Aftershave is put on the face after shaving to help soothe the skin and to smell good. Cologne is perfume for men.

Coz real men don't wear perfume......................

I call it aftershave because I put it on after I shave. I'm not one of the types to have a bath in it whenever I'm going to the shops. That's what the lynx is for:cool:

I just asked my dad about this and he says only wimps wear perfume.

He then told me he only moisturises after he shaves because he has sensitive skin...

They are two different things. The difference is the concentration of aromatic compounds in them, cologne has more than afteshave. Cologne is 3-8%, after shave 1-3%. Usually cheaper than cologne.

Both aftershave and cologne are perfumes. I have been known to put on aftershave after not shaving.

The name comes from when French officers used it to hide the sent of the galley slaves, who were chained to the oars for years.
