Thread: Which Penhaligon's Shaving Cream

Gentlemen, thank you so much for your thoughts. I am going back and forth between Endymion and Blenheim Bouquet. Something new? Or something old? Nearly 100 years separate these fragrances. I have to say that this is a good dilemma to have. Thanks again, gentlemen!

I like Blenheim Bouquet very much. That said, Castle Forbes and Domenico Caraceni are not to be overlooked if you are trying to sample the best of the best creams. You really can't make a bad choice here. And, when you run out of whatever you decide to go with first....its on to the next one.

Congratulations on your upcoming graduation.

Mate, if you want me to order some for you and ship it out, just let me know..!

Well ... I decided to go with old and new. I purchased the Blenheim Bouquet tub and Endymion tube from Lynn and Don. I figure you only live once, and I may never get these shaving creams again. As for Castle Forbes, it was my very first shaving product. I had based my decision to get it on the fantastic reviews posted on this forum. The same can be said about the two shaving creams I just purchased.

Here are a couple excellent reviews of the shaving creams dealt with in this thread for those that may be curious:

Blenheim Bouquet

Endymion

Once I use them for awhile, I might provide a review or post some impressions. Sincerely, thanks for the congratulations and thanks for your help. I am glad to be done with college.

Congratulations! You have some of the finest shaving cream. It would be great to know what you think.

I'll let you know when things are getting desperate mate. I've already used what you sent, but I have a few other soaps/creams at the moment, so I can hold off. If I do ask you to send some, let me know how much the likely total cost is (over estimate rather than under estimate) and I will cover it. I'm going to be looking at a new (to me) shaving shop today and we'll see what they may have or are willing to stock. Thanks mate.

MickR, I was doing some Google searching and found an Australian website that carries the Penhaligon's product line. Take a look at this and see if it might help you out.

As you are soon to graduate, I'm gonna ssume you are quite young.
Given that assumption, I would recommend the Endymion.
The Opus 1870 is also nice, but a rather weak smell without any staying power.
The Endymion seems to get me the most positive remarks from the younger people I meet.

But again, all three are top notch, with good scent and shaving performance.

Hello

I'm new here - this is my first post.

I'm about to order one of the 3 Penhaligons cream shaves online but could you please be so kind and tell me what they smell like ?

I already bought the Truefitt Sandalwood, so looking for a quality ShaveCream with a different scent, maybe more mint fresh like as in Proraso cream like but less eucalyptus dominant.....

Thanks in advance

Welcome to SRP CHSeifert. The Penhaligons Endymion is one of the best shaving creams you can buy, and the scent is just awesome. Not minty, but a warm awesome scent. You'll love it.
