I tried Nivea shaving cream in a can once and I wasn't really impressed. Besides, it cost qiite a bit more than the others.
I purchased a tube of blue from Amazon a few years back. Great stuff really like the fragrance, the product was from Greece. When I went to reorder a new shipment, it was from Germany (I think) difference fragrance. Same performance but not as enjoyable. My last reorder was from fleabay, again a European source via a NJ seller
