Just bought some of this in a shop downtown the other day. Once home, I discovered online that I could have gotten it with shipping included for about $5 usd less. Oh well...
The cream is marvelous and has a terrific smell, maybe a bit like TOBS Eton cream. It lathers abundantly and easily, with plenty of cushion and glide. The tube is quite small (75ml) and not the usual slimmed down travel size tube. It's quite short and squat, rather like a tube of Proraso with half used and rolled/folded. I give it top marks down the line, but I rarely try a shaving cream that doesn't function well, and I'm a sucker for a pretty scent.
At my purchase price it's about four times as costly as Proraso. Am I sorry I bought it? Of course not — it's lovely stuff.
Is it four times better than Proraso? Of course not — but I am very pleased to have it all the same.
