TS cream Top Secret Lanolizado is amazing.
Scent is like a soapy wood. Very nice and clean and not overpowering at all.
Lather is the surprise here. I made it like all my creams. What was a surprise is how much water you can add to a small amount and the thick rich lather it will produce. I lathered up for the first go and it was like La Tojo cream in its lather with maybe a little better cushion. Upon lathering up for the second go I added some water to my brush, just a little, and man did the lather pop! I had a richer & thicker lather & when I went for a final round XTG, just cause the shave was so sweet, I still had a ton of rich lather left.
I took a pic shown below of what I rinsed off down the drain.... just so much left over
I only used and a teaspoon of this cream. No more or less then I usually use with other creams.
EXCELLENT cream here...

The Denim shaving cream is stocked in most of the supermarkets here, though the packaging in your picture looks a little more vintage.

I LOVE the 444. Mix it with your favorite AS splash and rub it in. It's got no odor, but a nice menthol feel.
My last order was a tube of 444 and a Limited Edition Semogue brush, which has become my everyday brush.

Yea thats what I like about ordering from Leon. He stocks things you dont see in the states & has tried them as well. I really like using creams & have found quite a ref I really like.
Of course having a scuttle has really made it even nicer.
Cant wait to try the Denim tomorrow. It smells pretty nice, though that generally changes when you whip them up
