My latest, last and best, so far, sandalwood cream is: Cyril R. Salter Indian Sandalwood. Excellent performer and scent. All other sandalwood soaps have either been PIF'd or sold.
I didn't know anything about fragrances or sandalwood before I switched to safety razors this past summer, but it turns out that I might have smelled the real deal when I was much younger. Mama Bear's Mysore Sandalwood smells a lot like what I think sandalwood is supposed to smell like. However, the more that I smell sandalwood fragrances from different vendors, the more confused I get about the scent. I also really love the smell of the oakmoss sandalwood TSD pre-shave balm but I'm not sure how much of that is due to the oakmoss part.
The Soap Commander was a good soap, with an "unusual" sandalwood scent. Real Sandalwood is very expensive and the "dupe" scents many of the soap makers use just doesn't cut it. However, performance-wise, SC holds its own. I still prefer the Salter.
