My final assessment.
I enjoyed both cream, and so far many users have written about that. I've been very happy with the performance of both shaving creams. I was able to face-lather them very well, and very consistently. No complaints about performance for me. I only wish my sniffer could pick up the T&H scent, but alas that seems to be a "me" issue, not a T&H issue, based on the reviews I've been reading on this thread.
Q1: You're the Minister of Creams, and have the final say for any Cream that is branded in Britain. Which single quality, of each cream, would you change to make the product better? Scent, glide/slickness, cushion, post shave feel, etc. Feel free to comment on each aspect of each Cream, but remember that you can only change one of the aspects.
TOBS: a bit more woodier notes, for me. The floral notes were pleasant, but a surprise to me. But I think that is because "woodier" is my experience with sandalwood scents. I was at first unsure of this cream's scent, but it will definitely be part of my Sunday rotation for Sandalwood Sundays.
T&H: a more pronounced scent. However, it looks like this was a personal issue, as most gents here picked it up with no problem
Q2: If you haven't, would you buy/try a different scent from either Brand? If you have tried a different scent, which is it and how does it rate to the Sandalwood version?
I have not tried other scents of either brand, but was lucky enough to get some through auctions 012 and 179. I cannot wait to try them.
Overall, this was a great experience for me, and I am very grateful that [MENTION=79047]fordfather[/MENTION] organized this for me/us.
