Amazon.com: Crema di Sapone Almond Soft Shave Cream Soap 5.2 oz. by Valobra: Beauty
They also make a menthol that might rock with the Poraso menthol I am going to try that come Springtime!!!!!
The other night, when I first got acquainted with the Mambo Italiano, Don said that it had to be a soap with a lot of conditioning because Proraso is very poor in terms of conditioning. I posted in the thread "where can i buy proraso" and I waiting to hear the reviews. Perhaps spanx you can tell us about your opinion of the Proraso shaving cream and its conditioning qualities or lack of.
Al raz.
Spanx I blame you here..... I just ordered both Menthols....
Since I had the page up anyway...:y:y
Hmmmmm "Cooling Mambo Italiano" ????
"Springtime Italiano"????
Poraso goes well with CS Bay Rum also. :nj
Ijust put a post in "where can i buy proaso" i gave my interpretation of a review.It may or maynot be flawed or limited by experience but it is true in every sense.Quote:

I'm using Tabac original and Omega shaving soap with Proraso cream (not both soaps at the same time). Standard uberlather formula. Soap on brush, snurdle of Proraso, and 10 drops or so of glycerin.
The Omega soap also has eucalyptus/menthol so you get a double dose (I love that).
Both combos work quite well but the Omega seems to dry out just a bit faster. Odd, since the Omega soap itself is almost like a cream in a bowl (...maybe it got that way since I leave the cover on it. I'll try leaving the cover off and see if it drys out and hardens).
