I've been thoroughly enjoying samples received from a number of companies and this morning I broke into the Geo. Trumpers Limes.

Really liked the rich lather of the shave cream and the scent was envigorating but not overpowering. The lather was certainly top notch and allowed for a very comfortable shave. I finished off with the limes face food; first time I'd tried the face food and was quite impressed. Used what I considered a scant dab-about the size of a dime, maybe less. This was more than enough! The sample they sent might be 5-7 ml and I expect that it will last quite a while (15-20 applications maybe). Refreshing and very quickly absorbed; really a marvelous product. I'll be using it regularly (whenever I can talk myself out of using T&H original balm--but that's another review). I topped it off with a dab of their limes cologne. Same great scent, but I'm not sure that I'd want to use this as my regular cologne. I did find however, that at least on me, it did not last as long as some of the Truefitt and Hill colognes--within 2-hours scent gone . In general, I like the limes shaving cream and face food; I'll probably pass on the cologne. The subdued scent of the shaving cream and face food (I think) would still allow some other cologne to be worn afterward if desired. One day soon I'll try it and post the results. On the other hand, one could go off to face the world quite happy and refreshed sans scent after a refreshing limes morning ritual.
