Fred, Randy,
Thank-you! I currently have seven creams in my rotation and am constantly fighting the desire to buy more. I'm glad I'm not as far gone as some .

This is a toughie! I love them all! BUT, if I had to choose, T&H 1805 and Taylor's Shaving Shop. Both give great shaves, but the preference is all about the scent! Unfortunately, I'm no good at describing scents. Taylor's Avocado actually gives the smoothest shave, IMO.

I have 8 on the go at the moment, but am always on the lookout for more.

My favorites are definatley Trumpers, Dr Harris and Coates of the many I have tried, Taylors and T&H just dont seem to give such a good lather for me.

My goodness RT....that's quite a collection!!

i'm going to agree with randy on the 1805, it is one of my favorite creams.

for taylor i would recommend the avocado.

i, too, have a lot of creams and soaps. it comes with starting out with a DE. when you shave with a DE you have to try out lots of creams because the razors themselves aren't that interesting.

with straights you get nice razors, honing, cleaning and with safety razors you have diff. brushes or soaps to make it interesting.
