I am running low on my Cyril R Salter Sublime Citrus. Before that it was Castle Forbes Lime. Both have been excellent. Recommend another top-shelf brand or perhaps another Castle Forsbes or Cyril R Salter. I am not interested in TOBS or Trumper as I have used a bunch of those over the years. Truefitt & Hill is another I really liked. Maybe Art of Shaving Sandalwood?

St James of London Sandalwood and Bergamot is my favourite cream by far. I love the scent and the performance and it isn’t super expensive.

Hmm - TOBS Avocado is going away? Well I did like THAT one. Maybe I should hoard one of those.

I hear that A&E Kaizen is an outstanding soap, but I can’t find it in stock anywhere.
Seeing as this is the shaving cream forum, I’ll recommend Nancy Boy. I like their signature scent but haven’t tried the sandalwood. I also love Salter’s Wild Rose, Indian Sandalwood and French Vetiver, but pe definitely have mixed opinions about the vetiver.
Since you brought up AoS and you've been using citrus scents, I can recommend the Art if Shaving Bergamot & Neroli shave cream. I personally find it a very pleasant scent and strong performer. The Bergamot & Neroli balm is excellent.
Hope you find this helpful.
If you like rose Cyril’s wild rose is very good. I prefer it to TOBS rose.
As far as citrus goes Captain’s Choice Lime is excellent.

Castle Forbes 1445 is first rate.
I’ll try the Lime this summer.

As you like lime and also T&H then their West Indian Limes would be a good choice.
I know you said no TOBS but have you tried their new Lime Zest? I bought it recently and am loving it

Excellent scent: largely citrus, slightly floral and slightly herbal.
Excellent performance.
Expensive, but concentrated.

Another vote for Nancy Boy. I use their Signature cream almost every day. Outstanding performance.
What about something from the Captain’s Choice stable. He has some great shaving creams in his store.
My picks for creams are
Acqua di Parma
Baume
Castle Forbes 1445
Santa Maria Novella
Speick Original

Cella Bio (in the green tub). It's the best cream I've used, and the scent is lovely. The splash is also worth getting.
Another vote for Castle Forbes 1445, and also St. James of London Sandalwood and Bergamot. Another St. James cream I really like is their Cedarwood and Clarysage.
any AOS cream is worth trying.
with the mall stores shutting, some of the items are showing up with good discounts at the outlet stores.
