I used to use a lot of Caswell Massey products. Personally, I always preferred their colognes and aftershaves over their shaving creams. I had problems getting their creams to lather well. Admittedly, I didn't have the same level of experience crafting lather then, so your experience may be different. Their shaving soaps may be a different matter altogether. Perhaps you may want to give them a try. I believe they have 1752 almond shaving soap.
