+1 for me on this. I used the cedarwood/Sandalwood again and while I am still not crazy for the scent the cream itself rocks.:rolleyes:

I bought a tub at Aidan Gill in New Orleans. A very nice shave there, too, by the way, even if they do use a Mach 3. :) Anyway, I digress... They had samplers out that you could look at, smell, etc.

Of course, that's no help if you're not in that area, but who knows... :)

I have the CF Sandalwood, and yes it is very good. Straight Razor Designs is outstanding-but they sell a product made by Baxter of California which IMO, is the BEST Shave Cream I have EVER used. I have Castle Forbes as well as Taylor of Old Bond Street-both are really outstanding. I think the CF is the better of those two. The Baxter is only $19 and absolutely is worth every penny-has a VERY mild methol/pepperminty scent.

Even though those products are $$$-treat yourself and your FACE will thank you.:tu

I have the CF lime cream. It's almost like a soft soap rather than a cream. I use the teeniest amounts to make gobs of lather. It's great stuff. Worst case scenario: you buy a tub, hate it, and sell the tub for a small loss. Certainly worth a try.
