Thread: Just received Truefitt & Hill Sample Pack

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.

I completely agree. I just bought a TF&H No. 10 because I needed a gentle soap right away, and the local mens-grooming-shop had it.
The lather is great. Doesn't have a lot of glide to it, and it's a little bit dry, but it lathers up really nicely. Getting a lush lather is easy.
The smell though.. good grief. It smells like cheap shampoo/hair-balsam for women.

But I adore it, only because this is the first soap that doesn't give me large red spots (probably because of allergy).
This is only my second soap so far though... There are many soaps to come.

I take that back. Now that I've used it some more, I have grown very fond of it.
The fragrance is clean, refined and fresh.
