    Default Geo F Trumper Rose Cream

    I took delivery of a Boker Piccadily (referenced on another thread) yesterday and with it had ordered a tub of Geo Trumper's Rose shave cream. I had tried George's Coconut cream in a tube a couple of months ago and, while I liked the scent, I didn't get great lather out of it (might have been something about my technique, tho). But this -- great lather and a very nice, rosy fragrance. The only thing I noted otherwise is that it left my white shave towel kind of -- well -- rosy colored after I wiped off excess lather. However, that tint disappeared as the towel dried. Interesting effect. I'm putting it in my regular rotation.

    I agree, that is one of the finer Rose scented creams ever made.
    The pink hue is a bit funky at first, but now I don't pay much attention to it

    Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

    I haven't used the cream but I have used the soap and it is very nice.

    It's what brought me into the 'niche' shaving products
    Started offer with Nivea (cream), the stuff that comes in a tube and is made in Germany. Also tried another called Kaloderma, before dropping the coin on Trumper's Rose cream. I now only use soaps and the Rose soap by Trumper was my first. I still keep a puck in my den and use it in the summer to remind me of my first "real" shaves

    I haven't tried GFT Rose, I'll have to put it on the list. I have a bunch of Rose creams and soaps. TOBS Rose, T&H Rose, AOS Rose for creams. (AOS Rose shave cream is marketed for Woman) For soaps, Prairie Creations Rose, and Mama Bears Roses, Both soaps smell like fresh cut flowers. Really good stuff....
