    I have really been enjoying my Proraso morning shaves recently. For me, this is an absolutely amazing product for a great price. :love055: As I lay awake at night dreaming about Proraso I find myself wondering...what is my favourite Proraso soap? What is your favourite Proraso soap? :signs002: In your response please feel to wax eloquent about your appreciation for this natural wonder of the shaving world.

    I love the eucalyptus and menthol of Proraso Green. :happy088::happy088:

    I have tried White and Green with the Green actually being the C.O. Bigelow cream. I've heard it's the same stuff. I used White this morning and will be using it a lot this month with a focus that I've chosen. It's good stuff! Very cushioning.

    I'm interested to soon try Red. I have a tub but haven't tried it yet.

    I agree!

    the blue is very nice also, scent lags a bit, but performance is very nice.
    I've only used blue in the tube, haven't seen it in a tub.

    While I think that all the Proraso soaps and cremes perform very well in terms of lathering and slickness, the only one I can (and do) use is the white soap.

    - I don't like the cooling effect of menthol, that rules out the green
    - I don't care for the scent of either the red or the blue one (the red being the slightly more tolerable of the two)

    By a slight margin I like Green best for the menthol. All are great performers and a great value. True classics.

    They sell the blue only as a tubed cream - there's no soap variation available.
    There's also a Proraso Yellow, but that's canned foam only ;)

    Haven't tried blue. Of the others green is my favorite.

    I find that the menthol in the green is barely noticeable. As I love menthol in a shave soap, I was disappointed. I like the scent of the red.

    I like them all. The menthol in the green and white, the scent and shea in the red. I haven't tried the blue yet but have a tube waiting its turn. Heard nothing but great things though so I expect I'll like it too.

    I remember seeing the new packaging, but didn't know it was a new formula. Do you know what they added/took out?

    I have both the new and the old formula...as far as I can tell they are the same. If there is a difference it is minor.

    Well, I've used the Stirling glacial soaps and compared to that, the Proraso is mild.

    I feel like the odd man out.... I haven't met a Proraso soap I liked :(

    Yes. My experience is because I don't use Green very often. So my face is not used to it.

    The face easily adjusts to menthol.

    I only have the green and the blue. My preference is the blue because I like the scent much better. I still have to try the red.
