Thread: Just received my first tub of TOBS

So far TOBS is my favorite and one I always go back to, lathers and shaves great. I have gone through sandalwood, almond and now on eton college. So far eton college is my favorite of the 3, a clean scent is the best way I can describe it. It has been over a year since using sandalwood so I cant remember exactly how I liked it but I remember thinking it was just ok. Almond was nice but the smell to me was more like chocolate covered cherries.

I think you guys have talked me into grapefruit for the next one to try.

You'll not be disappointed with the grapefruit one. It's sharp and fresh, perfect for summertimes.

I shaved with the eton college again today and paid more attention to the smell. My wife agrees and we think it smells like a lemon furniture polish/cleaner. It is not strong or overpowering and is a nice pleasant scent.

I typically dont buy too many creams or soaps at one time, I usually wait until I run out. I never really thought about it before but that is probably why I am not too impressed with the sandalwood and almond, I used them for too long without switching things up and got tired of the scent. I can see that happening with the eton college, guess ill have to by a few more so I can alternate

Just shaved with TOBS for the first time this morning. Bought the Sandalwood cream.

The scent is almost not present. Very little if any odor at all.

The shave was very nice with a lot of glide and cushion. Like CdM, it took very little cream on a silvertip to get a rich and thick lather. I am now on the TOBS wagon and will order more.
