I used Ingram from Egypt this morning, and I find it to have the identical lovely scent and rich lather as the version from the UK. However, the Egyptian version is somewhat colder-feeling, and appears to even have better moisturizing. Let me show you guys a pic of it. The tube is smaller than the UK one--it's only 65 grams. Another thing I like about it is, the cream is of a much better consistency, not runny and watery like the UK kind.

Menthol Monday: Omega Wooden Handle Super Speed/new Derby Vi-John Mentholated SC Anherb AS Conditioner Giorgio Beverly Hills EDT This was my first shave in a long time with another Indian cream besides Godrej. The Vi-John Mentholated stuff by itself is just as rich in the lather, but the menthol effect is a disappointment because it's nowhere near as strong as the one from Godrej Menthol Mist. The Anherb aftershave is not only a face-freezer, it's so soothing as well as protective. By the way, I did an ATG pass, but very lightly, and it helped to make me almost BBS.

Almost too much menthol today. Don't think I'll dose the shower scrubbie with quite so much menthol again. Didn't really feel the 3 drops of MBomb in my superlather, but the 444 ASB really mixed nicely with the Alpa 378 aftershave. Gonna have to order at least 4 or 5 tubes of the 444 when I get low.

I love this stuff so much, and the Anherb conditioner adds to that wonderful freeze.

Sorry, Jeff, I missed this post. I don't use it on my face but, uhmmm, other areas you use it on, is extremely cooling, especially the green bottle. The gold bottle is nice as well, but for that nearly insane amount of cold, use the green. I am loyal to it like I'm loyal to traditional shaving. Today's Menthol Monday brought to you by: home iced TSD Monkey Farts SS home iced and home blended Clubman Pinaud/Superior 70/Barbasol Pacific Rush/FL H2O with a bit of glycerin aftershave. Man, I gotta find another name for that homebrewed AS......I was running toward the bottom of a few bottles so I consolidated them into one nice little decanter my wife found for me and luckily, they all play nicely. Pretty good smelling stuff actually. You catch notes from all 4 separately.
