    Seems like everytime I read this forum, I end up buying something from someone. Ordering some Nancy Boy shave cream. Lately, I really like the T & H cream, but wouldn't mind something a little less expensive.

    Gentlemen,

    With the parade of great soaps and creams available, it's hard to settle for just one favorite. Here are some of my favorites, for what it's worth:

    Taylor of Old Bond Street rose shave cream
    Geo F Trumper rose shave cream
    Truefitt & Hill Ultimate Comfort (unscented) shave cream
    Tabac soap
    Pre de Provence soap
    Caswell-Massey plain soap

    CF limes for me. Followed closely by Tabac or TGQ bay rum soaps.

    Creams: Nancy Boy. It's hands down the best cream I own. The downside? I wish they offered more than two scents as i love variation. But I'm not sick of their Signature Cream in the least, so maybe it's not such a downside.

    Soaps: Tabac or Mama Bears. I cannot decide which one I prefer. Tabac produces a fantastic lather and leaves my skin feeling smooth and tight. Mama Bears in an scent gives a superb lather and is excellent one ones skin. For the price it cannot be beat.

    The Verdict: If I had to choose a single product to use and that was it, I suppose it would be Nancy Boy Signature Scent shaving cream.

    I still have a hard time finding a soap that would match the qualities of the cream. For me Acqua di Parma SC is the finest cream out there. A true luxury.(Mind you I was given a Santa Maria Novella for my birthday and I have yet to try it.)

    I have to say CF Lime is my favorite. Followed by a tie Mama Bears, Elements of Bamboo and Colleens Cavendish Black. Both are really good but different scents at different times.

    I know its not that popular here, but the unscented art of shaving cream seems to work pretty well for me.
