A Big +1

QED Bay Rum is seriously the best of the best in my opinion. Burn Baby Burn!

that is seriously hilarious to me, i cant IMAGINE anyone wanting to smell like that.
to each his own i guess.
im sure theres a guy who thinks this girl is pretty too.

I hope not

ok i just ordered the most referenced Shaving cream on these forums, some cavendish from TGQ, also a tgq lime margarita soap bar.
i also ordered some verbena from Olivia

if none of these smell good than im just using nivea. i could have bought a lifetimes supply for what ive spent on shaving soaps

my scent breakdown so far
mamabear sleighride, good.
mamabear ginger lime, not so good, not offensive
mamabear citrus burst, not so good, not offensive.
QED bay rum, Disgusting
Creme de sapone, disgusting
erasmic shave stick, chemical smell.
i think originall i thought the mamabears were disgusting, but after smelling these .....

Octopus wait did you get your order in yet, you really need to try the Bay/Sweet orange soap. The Lime Margerata is a good one, I just ordered Autum Spice, the leather one and hmmm..... I cant remember the other
The Cavendish is a good one and the Sandlewood is great too, I also have the Verbena

that bay rum has scared me away from this supposed " bay " scent, whatever that is.

ok I never knew what Bay rum was untill I got to this forum. My first experience was with Pinaud Bay Rum and I hated it. I finally decided to give another Bay Rum a try and now I love all Bay Rum. I would not steer you wrong on this. TGQ Bay/Sweet orange is now my fav, has a bay smell and like a tangerine smell in one. If you hate it I will buy it from you because I love it. Or buy a sample.

Shave her with some of that Kielbasa scented soap, and the Austrian in me won't hardly be able to resist.

He didn't mention Cella. in his first post he said: crema da sapone... <GONE>(virgilio valobra)- smells like detergent + rancid vanilla

where the "(virgilio valobra)" is the name of the brand. I have no idea why he put in "crema da sapone" in the start where he put the other brand names. Seeing as crema da sapone just means something like "Creamy soap" or "Cream soap".

Cella is another brand alltogether afaik.

pics to illustrate:

First up is Valobora:


Second pic is the Cella:


I don't know if they smell the same. But it certainly seems that it is two different brands. The fact that they both call it crema da sapone surely does not make them the same though. That would be the same as saying that Olivias is the same as TGQs which would also be the same as Mamma Bears ect.

It seems he just worded his post badly
