I had the green soap, and I didn't really care for it. I have the blue cream, and it's really good.
Hi Demidog,I bought a sample pack of three creams and one soap in January and I loved them so much that I ended up buying all four creams. I had been shaving with soaps that caused irritation for so long that when I tried Proraso and didn't feel any burning or pain after shaving, it was absolutely surreal.
I even bought some pre-shave and a few aftershaves. When I have more to spend, I'll get even more aftershaves and pre-shaves. I agree with Ron above that variety is the spice of life, which is why I have all four lines of Proraso. I love all four scents.
They are coming out with a new line of products in a few months and I can't wait to try them. I'll still use artisan soaps that don't light my face up and especially artisan aftershaves but the four Proraso creams are a mainstay for me and my primary choice for most shaves.
It would be the blue cream in a tube.You mention four Proraso shave soaps/creams. I'm in Australia and we get three - Green (original menthol), Red (shea butter & sandalwood) and White (sensitive).
Would you please elaborate on the fourth?

As Dominic stated, that would be the blue. It has a fantastic scent but it seems to be a bit polarizing. I would say that it's currently my favorite cream in their lineup, just edging out the others by a hair.Hi Demidog,

They're coming out with the "Proraso Single Blade" collection, which includes three different lineups so far: Wood & Spice, Azur & Lime, and Cypress & Vetyver. It seems like it's mostly geared towards bearded folks because each line includes beard oil, beard balm, and beard shampoo, but they also include aftershave balm, cologne, and shaving cream.New line? Please elaborate
Did you order them from that one European vendor who seems to have them well in advance? I was told that firstly, the new product line would not be available until April and second, the creams would only be available to barbers for the time being.While typically a soap guy, I love both the Proraso soaps and creams. Over the weekend I ordered the new Woods and Spice cream as well as the new Cypress and Vetiver cream. Can't wait for them to come in.
I picked them up from Gifts and Care for 14.46€ each. (They're almost double the size of the typical creams at 275ml). I'll definitely post some reviews when I get them but there's already some promising reviews in the creams forum.Did you order them from that one European vendor who seems to have them well in advance?

Also please post your reviews/thoughts when you have a chance to try them out. I am eager to try the new aftershaves and colognes, and I doubt that either will be available at brick and mortar stores in the US so I will be counting on reviews to get an idea of the scents.
