Forgot to post this from a few weeks back:
For such a premium product I was expecting a premium experience. Perhaps it was due to only using a small sample, but this didn't impress.
Creating suds was fine, but I was forced to go back and load again in order to achieve a decent lather on several occasions. The provided slickness wasn't great even then.
Protection was likewise found wanting and I picked up nicks on all of my shaves. You wouldn't mind if the finish was good, but on all bar one occasion it was barely better than average.
Very odd considering this is supposedly made by Valobra.
As a proclaimed fragrance house you would expect this to be a strong point, only it wasn't for me. The scent strength wasn't very potent and the Oxford and Cambridge fragrance — described as a mix of lavender, peppermint and rosemary — didn't stand out. It was pleasant enough but not something I'd need to try again.
As I say, maybe I didn't use enough of the product, but for me this didn't deliver anywhere near where it needed to for the price to be justified.
Full review here.
