Thread: Just received Truefitt & Hill Sample Pack

So I just finished my last sample in the TF&H sample pack (I also tried a sample of Authentic No. 10). First off, the quality of the shave creams and balms throughout the entire line is just fantastic. I can't imagine taking TF&H out of my top 3 anytime soon.

Now on to the second point, scent. I really wanted to like a lot of their scents but overall I was almost completely disappointed. I'm just not someone who likes cologne or perfume scented shave products, they smell artificial to me. I prefer a strong natural scent (castle forbes limes please!) or just something softer. So I was pretty dissapointed as almost all the shave creams smelled like cologne or perfume to me. Even, the ones I thought weren't going to, just had this artificial harsh base to them.

Out of the entire sample line, the product that knocked it out of the park for me was the Ultimate Comfort Pre-Shave. It had a citrus scent that I loved, and it is the best pre-shave I have used to date. This is on my must buy list. I really want to buy a shave cream to go with it, so I am most likely just going to pick up the Ultimate Comfort Shave Cream. The scent is labeled as unscented, but it has a soft (lavendar?) scent to it. It's not ideal but out of the entire line it's the one I liked the most. The only other scent that was ok for me was 1805, mostly because it was a softer scent. Unfortunately the Ultimate Comfort After Shave is truely unscented, and that always smells wrong to me.

So that's it. I highly, highly recommend checking out the Truefitt and Hill shaving sampler if you haven't already. Their products are definitely on the more expensive side, but the quality is just amazing.
