    How do you define "best"?
    Best lather?
    Best price?
    Best cusion / protection?
    Best scent?

    And what I think is best may not be what you think is best.

    Best Lather and Best Protection overall the best bang for the buck :)

    there are many brands that make a great sandalwood. they all seem to be quite different. the Porasso is the only sandalwood I have and it is quite a earthy scent.

    Honestly, I think you'd like either one of them.

    I have 3 tubs of TOB's Sandalwood, gives me the cushion I need, decent lather and smells good to. But like others have said, it's a personal thing really...

    I have had both and the T&H scent is a sweeter, more perfume-y scent (which I did like) and the TOBS is more like a classic woodsy, barbershop scent. Both are top-notch performers but I tend to go toward TOBS a bit more.
