    Default Best lavender shave cream

    I am interested in hearing which lavender shave cream get high ratings. Two key factors would be smell and performance.

    I do enjoy Castle Forbes, but I'm currently liking OneBlade Black Tie Shaving Cream even better.

    I’m not crazy about the CF lavender, even though the performance is everything you’d expect from that company. I much prefer the D R Harris lavender, it’s less chemical and more subtle. Some people criticize it for having a weak smell, but to me that’s a plus as I don’t like strong scents.

    I like Castle Forbes and Taylor of Bond Street. Art of Shaving's lavender is good, but it costs more than it is worth.

    I have bern deeply enjoying the esbjerg lavender in regards to cream. Soap wise the gentleman's quarter is great too.

    Gentlemen,

    For me, the Castle Forbes lavender tops all the lavender shave creams I have used through the years. The lavender is earthy and robust. Of course, the cream's performance is the benchmark by which I evaluate all shave creams.

    Next in line is the OneBlade lavender shave cream. This was a surprise for me, and initially I thought it was made by Castle Forbes. It is not, I understand, but the stuff is exceptionally pleasing in fragrance and performance.

    I like Bulgarian Rose in lavender. https://www.cosmeticsbulgaria.com/en...aria-biofresh/ Has just a hint of lavender and cream makes a great lather. I bought 10 boxes and should last me a couple of years. Great stuff but takes about 4 weeks to arrive from Bulgaria. Believe Geezer recommended this a few years ago. My 2 cents. Regards, Austin
