    Well, I spent the $5.00 and got the sampler.

    I've never seen or smelled an expensive creme. The most expensive creme I have is Proraso, and it is pretty amazing. But I've never seen, smelled, or used any of the three T's before

    So I got my package, and opened up the creme. Holy Moly!!! The smell is amazing.... words simply can't describe it.

    I just barely dipped my brush into the lime creme. I had enough lather for a few shaves. The lather was amazing... the smell amazing... it was, well... AMAZING!!!

    The almond smells incredible, and I think that's what I'm going to use tomorrow. I can't hardily wait. The violet is simply beautiful.

    So... if you really want to try some amazing creme, be prepared... you might fall in love. Now I'm trying to justify a $30.00 jar of shaving creme. Probably several because there is no way I can pick just one.

    Unfortunately the skin food is just as nice. :(

    Dammit Goby, everywhere I look its awesome reviews for Trumpers. Now I just have to order some to see what all the hype is about. :happy102

    Beware... you have been warned! It's good stuff.

    And really, $30.00 for a jar sounds expensive, but it will last a long, long time. I'm thinking of starting with the cheaper "T", Taylor of Old Bond Street.

    I actually prefer Taylors to Trumpers for creams. For soaps, I love me some Trumpers rose. The skin food is good too.

    That's good to know. I found Taylors cremes for $14.95 shipped, which is much better than $30 plus shipping. I've heard the Taylor's almond is amazing.

    I can confirm that Taylor's Almond is great stuff :D

    Probably for the tubes.

    Tubs are a better value, for anyone who doesn't know.

    Several flavors of TOBS cream in tubs are available from Amazon for between $15.00 - $16.00 with free shipping if order is over $25.00.

    Yep, like I said tubs are a better value.

    Trumper's Violet SC is just insane when it comes to fragrance. Limes is pretty fantastic too.

    Otherwise, I'd go w/ Taylor's.

    I just tried the violet this morning. This is the first time that I have ever used a cream. Anyway, did not think that the smell was that strong, though it does smell ok. I ended up having to use almost the whole sample to get my 2nd pass. I was not impressed. I think it may just be the technique, so I will give the rest of them a try to see if what I can get them to work for me.

    Wow... I think I have either magic water or a magic brush. I'm guessing I'm going to get at least 4 shaves out of my lime cream.

    Smells great, shaves great, but for some reason the paraben free forumla burns like hell when I use it. :angry021

    The Coconut was the first one I tried from the sampler I received.

    I felt bad about tossing out the leftovers....I kinda wanted to taste it, it smelled so good.

    Nice products.

    I didn't get any Coconut, but the Almond, Limes, and Violet are amazing!!!

    And I love the Limes Skin Food too.

    You can ask for whatever you want to try a sample of In the comments section, if not just email with your order and request a certain one. I put in the order and emailed after with my order number and what I specifically wanted sampled included. They were extremely nice and said OK and if I wanted any further samples once my order arrived to just email them..so far at least great Customer service! :happy102
