    If you ever want to try ALL the TOBS scents, Fendrihan has a sample pack with all of them to try. I have it and I'm loving almost all of them!!! The Sandalwood is definitely one of my favs.

    I've had a couple of their products and it's great stuff. Don't buy into the idea that they're the "lesser" of the 3 T's.....

    Really? I just got a tub of St. James today and OH MAN DO I LOVE THE SMELL!
    It reminds me quite a bit of Drakkar Noir actually

    The Grapefruit is amazing, it smells just like a freshly cut grapefruit with no chemical smells at all, i love the sandalwood but in terms of authenticity, they have done an amazing job with the grapefruit.

    My first TOBS arrived a couple weeks ago. I got the traditional shaving soap and the St. James cream. SWMBO is not a fan of sandalwood or I would have gone for that. She seems to prefer the St. James so I take the Traditional on the road with me. I like both however I'm having a hard time with lathering on the soap. Gotta get my proportions right.
    Last night, I shot an elephant in my pajamas..........

    I just ordered this five minutes ago. Hopefully my girlfriend doesn't murder me once she realizes that I have almost 20 different creams. I think I have CAD.

    Leagally, she can't murder you for that until she becomes your wife. So until then, you have nothing to worry about!

    I don't even really bother with soap, other than the Proraso (but some don't even consider that a soap, something in between). I just add water little by little until I get the lather I want.

    How do you like the St. James?
