Thread: Cella revisited

Hey guys , I haven't ever done anything like this before , but I felt compelled. I travel a lot for my job around 265 days a year in the oilfield, so I bring the necessities for straight shaving with me. Mostly I carry the Proraso , Stirling soaps for the travel part . Now soon I will be home full time and then I will be using my finer soaps all the time( I'm a big fan of my MDC and Castle Forbes) but on the road I just didn't make a point of bringing these. As I was packing for my last trip I seen the old tub of Cella I started with and gave up on it. Well I,m using it now out in the field, and my lather technique must be better , because I really like this cream! Inexpensive and very smooth shaves ,, so if any of you guys has an old soap or cream laying around and haven't used since you began , Pick them up and try it out , I won't be giving up my good stock , but this Cella will get used from here on out on in my travel bag. Tc

Cella is a great soap. I find myself using it alot of times over my other soaps/creams. It is easy to lather and does an excellent job of what it is supposed to do, plus I like the smell.

Yep, it should probably be in everyone's line up. A staple.

I run counter to the swell of men who enjoy this product. Tried a sample years ago and thought Meh. Had a tub gifted to me by my soon to be ex wife and tried to love it....but no.

Yes, Cella does the job well unfortunately I find the scent off putting. Classic YMMV.

I do like the Cella as well and bring it with me to work as well. I work in the marine industry and also spend a lot of time away. Soap I don't like shaving with become shower soaps though, it's a little more awkward with creams though.

I like the Cella properties as does my daughter-in-law.
We agree it is an excellent shaving soap.
The almond scent is a bit on the strong side but not off putting.

I had the same experience as Tcrideshd; I put it aside for a while and though of giving it away; after a while I picked it up again and it was love at second sight.




Now I need to get one of these:

So if you like the Red Tub Cella may I suggest that you try a sample of the Cella Block (1KG)
Well worth a try...and a great value - sort of the "Arko" of Italian style soft soaps...

And Smooth Shaving...

1kg is a lot of soap. That would last a very very long time.
