Thread: Crabtree & Evelyn shaving soap - no longer available?

TOBS sandalwood soap is awesome and I would say one of the best hard soaps I have tried yet (including MWF, DR Harris). It may not be tallow-based but it performs like a tallow-based soap and produces a dense, slick lather.

PM me if you would like a sample.

TOBS sandalwood is the only non-tallow based soap in my constant rotation. Great soap!

Unobtainium = C&E Sweet Almond Oil shave cream

I still have one tub left and a half tub of their Sandalwood

Always liked their stuff

Had a quick look online, looks like C&E is an online only retailer now with only a flagship concept store in London remaining.
Shame but it appears the brand has been struggling for some time. It was re branded in 2019 reaching out to millennials who associated the brand with their grandparents. The shaving side of the new products look pretty bleak to me.
