    I was just searching the Truefitt and Hill website and just saw their No.10 line of products. They are less expensive than the other creams and such. I was wondering if anybody has tried this and their thoughts about it?

    Any ideas, i love their 1805 cream the scent is light and great. I want to try the No. 10 but they say it has different ingredients.

    It might be more of a introductory cream to luxury. For 200ml/6.7oz for 20 bucks a tub it is 10 dollars or so less than their original line.

    I was wondering what you guys and gals thoughts are on this cream and or line of products now offered.

    First I've heard of this new line. It seems it's really new and most retailers don't have it yet.

    If it's made by Creighton's, my guess is it's just a less expensive package and scent with a similar cream formula. My biggest concern would be scent as I find all Creighton's creams to shave very similar. I find T&H the best scented of these comparable creams, but I wonder if this line is going to maintain that scent level or be comparable to TOBS at a slightly higher price. I'm looking forward to the first reports.

    Hmmm ok I wasn't too sure how new it was. I don't have an issue with their scents i find the few ones made by Creightons to be mild scented but still a nice scent.

    There was a thread about it across the street... however not much information as of yet. I might give it a bit of a wait before buying any. But that is just me. If you see it cheap i would pick it up for sure. Mantic said that it was good and worked well brush/brush less, de/cartridge so overall i would say a good cream. From what we know so far :D

    Bump...

    Wondering if anybody has decided to bite the bullet and pick up a tub of this good stuff?

    I really don't want to have to buy some :)

    When all else fails... have you checked out the TSD Store? JoAnna's list shows the 1805 as a sample option.

    Problem is we're curious about "No. 10", not "1805".

    Yup. :ashamed001: Gotta pay closer attention to what I read. I picked up the "1805" in the OP second paragraph and that stuck in my head.

    Grrr this means that if you have samples I will have to buy one... :)

    I have the 1805 sampler and it is a great cream. However their creams are too expensive... Well not too expensive but I wouldnt want to spend that much on a cream when i can get some for 1/3 the price that work well.

    Looking forward to peoples thoughts on this product line.

    I used one tub of the 1805. So worth the money - it was probably the best scent I have ever deigned to cover my face in. If only it wasn't $32/tub. It's really quite shameful, but then you realize that your other scents just don't compare. I would absolutely love it if there was a less expensive option, or if there was a soap that had that particular scent. Sounds cheesy, but the scent of 1805 reminds me of spending a week at the lake during the summer: very nautical type scent, and very relaxing, but super intriguing.

    They are wonderful creams... but as stated... too expensive for my taste haha.

    Anybody try any of this stuff?

    Great cream. Soft and creamy lather, slightly above TOBS. A mild citrusy, okay-ish scent. Great value at such a low price.

    I’ve been using Trufitt & Hill cream for many years now. My favourite being the West Indian Limes, which to me is a fresh, invigorating smell.

    A few years back along with a mate, we treated ourselves to one of their luxury shaves; Very nice.
