I'm reviewing the tube, not the fabled tub which appears to be no longer made and a much better product.
Product lathers nice and gives a good moisurising shave. As stated above, the cream always seems to have separated so you get oil before cream every time. Does not effect performance, but not very pleasing for such a premium price.
Also, I tended to need more of this product for a rich lather than I do with others such as DR Harris or Trumpers.
Scent? I can barely smell it. I wouldn't know it was almond unless it said so on the label. With so many good almond scented creams out there, there's nothing to recommend this product.
For a product with such a high price tag and strong mythology built around it, this purchase was a major disappointment. A classic case of overpriced, over promised and under delivered.
