The lather looks like it could be better. Use more product perhaps.
It may also be a bit dry. This product seems to like a lot of water.

Got my tube of this in the mail today. The smell really is hard to describe. Very earthy, and quite pleasant. Looking forward to my first shave with it tomorrow morning.
I picked up a tube of both the new green and now the red Proraso and used both on back to back days. The red definitely smells like real sandalwood, so be prepared for that. It's very slick and lathers/performs better than the new green Proraso, at least to me. The new red is a fantastic cream and if you like the scent, you ought to be ecstatic about this one...a home run for sure. By the way, I seem to also detect a subtle earthy (read dirt) scent in the new green Proraso. Has anyone else noticed this?
No menthol at all.
Just tried some this morning. Great lather, nice and slick, and smells amazing...definitely worth a try for those that like the smell of AOS Sandalwood...to me, they smell almost the same.
You mean to say that, unlike almost every other sandalwood product available, it actually smells like the real thing. Not high-end crystalline Mysore oil mind you, but it's the real thing and exhibits similar characteristics. The fact that Proraso was able to swing this is amazing IMO.
It doesn't have a discernible cologne-inspired sandalwood scent, you're right. So, cologne-inspired sandalwood fans should avoid it. Sandalwood oil fans will love it.
