    I've heard mixed reviews regarding this one, mostly in reference to it being a fairly artificial scent. I love TOBS Rose, and I've heard good things about their Avocado cream too, so I want to like the lemon-lime. I am a fan of lime scented creams and the Amazon price is excellent, so I will probably grab one up, but I would be a lot less hesitant if I had the chance to smell it first.

    Big fan of TOBS. I find that their fragrances start pretty in your face (ha!) but wear well. I like the way the lemon lime mellows out.

    It's quite artificial, it's one of the only TOBS products that hate my face. Brings me up horribly red and blotchy. Never had a problem with the four others I've tried.

    youngunn Where's my TSD aftershave balm???

    I saw some bad reviews of this soap by the amazon buyers, that it wasn't all the way full and looked like someone had melted it... :eek:

    I wouldn't put too much stock in Amazon customer reviews of shaving products. I've read many reviews posted by folks who obviously know next to nothing about traditional shaving. I've also bought a few tubs of TOBS from Amazon without incident (and as is the case with the Lemon-Lime, Amazon was the seller as well as the distributor).

    TOBS sandlewood is one that I have and I see it on most top ten lists I've found but I don't see much that's favorable on that one, but...YMMV, right?
