    You mean the can goo??

    If I gotta pick on... Musgo Real... or Tabac.... or Rose of Bulgaria. They work great and are easy to get great lather from. Rose is a favorite scent of mine.

    GFT Spanish Leather comes to mind.
    The scent is intoxicating.

    That being said, I could probably list several great creams that I have which is probably why I have a closet full.

    Oh, I wasn't saying there WAS "Harsh/cigarette"....it was more an either/or question. You're right, I'd go for it in the fall/winter.

    Must Go Real, eh? :))))

    The only cream I have tried besides the can is Pacific shaving, it is ok but the lather doesn't last as long as I would like. I will be getting more next time I order stuff offline. Down here in the Fl Keys I have a hard time finding anything that is not a can of foaming goo.

    Too many top notch creams to pick a favorite based on performance. So for me it's about scent. Castle Forbes 1445 is probably my number one. Musgo Real classic scent isa contender too.

    Of course, I haven't gotten around to trying most of the 30ish creams that I own.
