    No menthol, more of a clean scent, barbershop scent maybe, not overpowering...

    Favorite cream is the CO bigelow aka proraso green.

    I like the lather and the scent and of cours e the menthol. Maybe doesn't help I've only tried one other cream.

    Is co bigelow the same as proraso Green?

    I guess if you count croaps I have tried more. I have this awesome pistachio pudding smelling stuff I just want to eat every time I use it. Haven't yet though. It is almond based and may irritate my face a little so I only use it every so often. I also like the Raso Rock classic. Smells great.

    I really don't know. I've 'heard' Proraso aquired co bigelow and I only have a tube of co bigelow I traded for from someone on the forum for a puck of HTGAM. They said the co was to cold for them. They need to try some stirling glacial line and then go back to the co or whatever it is now.

    Any way I don't know. Just assumed. Someone smarter than me can clarify.

    Yes. It says right on the package that it's made by Proraso for CO Bigelow. I can't tell any differene between it and Proraso Green.

    No menthol, no eucalyptus, no camphor. Smells very much like the classic Palmolive to me, only more so. But then I'm not as sensitive to scents as some may be. Great stuff, at any rate (both of them come to that!). :happy088:

    Finally ordered a tube. Got the free S+H form the Den shop so I decided it was time.

    The best I've ever tried is XPEC but it's $80 and no longer in production.

    I also like the shave creams from:
    Nancy Boy
    Spieck
    Art of Shaving
    Boitique

    The first I ever tried and I still love the smell and performance is bluebeards_revenge_shaving_cream.jpg Bluebeards Revenge shave cream.


    I think in the US of A they call it m9biBR6Rp9GpB4Z-UZjpWbw.jpg

    I wish someone could identify that smell, its strangely pleasing and I have NO IDEA where to start describing it except it is not a STRONG smell.

    Peter,

    Could you be more specific?

    when it comes to smells, I am like a caveman or maybe a baby, crossed with a computer programmer, I smell it and that part of my brain thinks "would I put this in my mouth" if yes - then good, if No - then bad, if unsure - post to TSD Forum. <END SMELL>
