    I actually do have a bag/box of that. It's the single edge formulation and I agree...it is very good....but I have a problem. I try to match scents of soap and fragrance and I could buy a very large bottle of Proraso Red AND the Red shaving cream for less than the cost of the Wood and Spice Cologne on its own. I have scottish genes (somewhere) and my brain goes into meltdown if I try to alter the definition of 'Value for Money'.

    Razor: Fine Accoutrements Marvel
    Blade: Personna Red (#2)
    Bowl: Fine Accoutrements Ceramic Lather Bowl
    Soap: Pre de Provence No. 63

    Thanks for your comment on the time involved (5minutes). Most comments on here boil down to, "I wave my brush near the puck to load it, then swirl once around the bowl, for enough lather for fifteen passes."
