If you think it´s overpriced you should try getting it in Portugal! :roll:
Hard to only being able to buy it for 10,5€+ when you see it in the states for 10$(7-7.5€)...

Blame the government. VAT here in Portugal is 21%.
As much as i know in the USA they don´t have VAT, only a sale tax, wich is much lower.

Are you talking about Musgo Real? You should at least try Top Secret. There's always room for YMMV, but this is a great cream.

Yes, it's Musgo Real. I was told the Top Secret is also excellent, but I have no way of getting it.

This cream is just sublime. Great scent and makes copious amounts of rich creamy lather from just a small amount of cream. Did I mention the scent? Found myself sitting on the edge of the bath with my nose deeply ensconced in the bowl after I had made the lather. I actually prefer Top Secret over Musgo Real - which I have not really got on with, thought it might have been the lanolin content but as TS also contains lanolin this obviously isn't the problem. Something in Musgo leaves me with red blotches on my cheeks which take a day or two to go away.
Such a shame, looking on their website that Confiança doesn't do an aftershave or balm - but have seen it on Vintage Scent :? - to go with this cream. Not a bad price too but have no idea on the cost of P&P, yet :hungrig
Feel a hoarding session coming up

Top secret shaving cream is indeed a very good shaving cream!
Do you asked for a Top Secret aftershave? There you have it, along with a cologne, you secret agent!Unluckily, the scent is somewhat different than the scent of the shaving cream...
