    Yes, but very light. It was like someone who had just sahved with Salter's sandalwood walked into the room. The Salter's is one of my favorite SW creams. I like it! And this, after my post on the "Discontinued" thread... :ashamed001 I've read that the new Maca root formulation is very similar, but the scent is different.

    The consistency, lather, etc reminded me of GFT. TBS is in England. I not sure if that a regional office or a home base. Anyone know who makes it?

    According to the store clerk I spoke to they make it. Some products TBS makes themselves and for others they outsource to local small vendors.

    I think the creams were made by Creightons who makes the creams for the three T's.

    This is why the performance is similar.

    I was impressed by it in the first shave. Seems very nice!

    I stopped by the Body Shop yesterday afternoon and picked up 4 tubs of the old formula cream. I think I am now set for creams and soaps for the next 5 years. :D

    At $4.00 a tub though, I just could not resist. I'll probably pass on two tubs to friends in an effort to convert them to Wet Shaving.

    It wasn't on the shelves. I just asked the clerk if they had any old formula cream in back. They had 20 tubs left as of Saturday afternoon and I bought 4 tubs.

    I think I have an unused tube lying around. I may have an extra tub, too. Send me a PM, Stuggi.

    I am really surpised these havent made it to the classifieds yet. The shipping though is the same price as the tub though! They are selling on ebay for a nice price hike. I got one from Shep and the stuff is really class act stuff. Dont know why I never tried it? Very good quality stuff.
