Agree with Harrygr that Nomad smells similar to Old Spice.
I use the cream, not the soap.
As good a lather/lubrication as anything out there.My father was an engineer. He used to tell me that sharpening a straight razor is like trying to build a ladder to the moon out of a roll of aluminum foil.

Load your brush and lather on you hand, face or bowl.
Your soap will last longer as well.

I've got the cream and like others said it was a good lather but nothing to write home about. The closet smell I could compare it up would be "leather", with exotic spices as backup. I just got a sample of Spanish Leather and the two remind me of each other.

Homeless people and camels? Wow! They not only smell great, but they taste good too ;-)

I have C&E Sandalwood and Nomad. I like the scents, but the lather isn't all that. It dries too quickly, and it isn't very 'rich.' Good enough stuff I guess, but like Obie said, there's better stuff out there.edhewitt likes this.bruseth

You are right about the drying thing, it doesn't hold much water, unlike camels which do Originally Posted by bruseth

I' ve recently read that C&E is changing their marketing policy by increasing he price of their products. The soap with the wooden bowl will cost €33 in Athens, up from €22 that it was.

Jeez Harry, that is one heck of a price hike! I wonder if that's happening elsewhere too - anyone know?
