Thread: Cella Crema or Mitchell's Wool Fat

I have both, Cella Crema Sapone is obviously an Italian classic, and MWF is as English as mustard and tea.

I without doubt prefer Cella. It gives rise to an awesome lather and is a favourite - in fact I shall use it tonight, having not used it in a while. Cella provides rich, lasting lather that generates effortlessly. It is very cheap and its texture is between a cream and a soap and moulds into any container. It has an almondy kind of scent that is neither too strong nor weak.


MWF on the other hand is as solid as a rock and too lasts ages, no issues as with longevity of a puck. It has a gentle soapy scent that many do not, albeit I do, notice; that is a blend of cloves and lavender.
Used by itself I'm not overwhelmed by the lather it produces, but I mix it with creams that do not perform so well alone, such as AOS.

I'm rambing, sorry! They are both great but I prefer Cella without a doubt. Both are excellent in the moisture department also.
