    the only TOBS cream I own is tobacco leaf and it is EXCELLENT very high quality scent, too bad there isn't an EDT or after shave splash of this.

    There is a tobacco leaf aftershave listed on the official TOBS website; not sure where else it's available. I love the scent, looking forward for sure to the aftershave. Also in my TOBS repertoire: lavender, lime zest, royal forest.

    I'm very fond of my TOBS Sandalwood cream, but I've got mixed feelings about its scent.

    The TOBS Avocado is one of those must-haves that is an all-time staple in my opinion. First time I smelled it, I absolutely loved it!

    I got the Royal Forest line recently and it is as good as the Tobacco Leaf scent in terms of fragrance. I haven't had the pleasure of trying the tobacco leaf scent, but it'll be next when I run out of my royal forest.

    Wouldn’t mind seeing them do a clone of polo green.

    The lather is as good as any. I admire the price. Mine are Sandalwood, Peppermint, and Cedarwood. The P and the C are excellent scents, but the Sandalwood is only tolerable but not to be missed when it finally gets used up.

    I recently bought some TOBS Sandalwood. The cream lathered really well and provided a great shave but the scent was just too overpowering for me. My towels, my bathroom, my whole house seemed to smell of sandalwood!

    So I ditched it. I kept the nice plastic dish it came in though. I took the labels off and I keep my Stirling Sandpiper Soap in there! :)

    Gotta love these threads started 8 yrs earlier. I'll chime in with the TOBS that work best for me are the straight scents like Grapefruit, Coconut, and Peppermint. The samples of Eton College, Jermyn St. and Mr. Taylor I tried I could hardly smell.

    Credit where credit's due - used the TOBS Sandalwood and the boar brush this morning. Together they created an outstanding lather and a brilliant shave. I have no complaints!

    If I were to buy more tubs of TOBS, I would grab the avocado and the grapefruit.

    I'm really liking Tobacco Leaf! Three shaves out of the sampler. The slickness is amazing!!!

    I mix a spoon of TOBS Almond cream with my Mitchell's Wool Fat and got really rich lather. Luxury!
