Finished.!!

My Phoenix & Beau sample :(
At least you got a sample, spare a thought for those poor unfortunates who had to hear how great it was with no opportunity to get any ;)

I think in the interests of fairness you should be at the back of the queue when it's released matey, or at least behind me my friend :)
 
I have a sample of the scented version but I have no way of knowing which formulation it is. I have seen the newer formulation at Connaught so I guess I need to take some time with the same to see how it sits with me.
 
Finished a full-size tub of Nancy Boy Signature this morning. Not sure how long I have had it but it must be at least 18 months.
Fantastic stuff with a fool-proof lather and lovely minty, lavender scent. Won't be replacing it for a while as I have drawers full of stuff to get through.
 
OSP sample...

C'mon, a sample! Ain't too hard to get through a sample! It's taken me over three years to finish off the Cella tub. :)

I always thought that when this Cella was done I'd replace it immediately. Three years later I'm not so sure about the immediately. My soap collection has risen a great deal since then and may soaps have overshadowed it. Still Cella always performed great for me with no issues. It's more of a croap than a cream and can be scooped out into the lather bowl easily. However since it's such a dense cream I sometimes find blobs of soap stuck to the lather bowl when cleaning up.

The soap suffers from the Italian theme of design over function. The bowl looks like it was designed by an artist and stands out in the bathroom manbinet for its damn good looks. However it's too small to easily load a brush from; so thankfully it's soft enough to scoop out of.

I might get this one again, I enjoy the almond scent but my Razorock XXX has come to replace it.

So, thanks for the memories Cella, maybe see you again sometime.

Truefitt & Hill Ultimate Comfort Pre-Shave Oil

The effect is very subtle but I found it did give an improved shave compared to when I didn't use it.
Also, it has a gentle warming citrus scent which was very welcome on cold winter mornings.

I had the second bottle lined up well before the old one ran out! (Lasted 3 months, using daily)
