This was actually my "go to" shaving cream before I started wet shaving. Now I use it mostly as my travel shaving cream because it is convenient when I am on the road and it keeps my skin feeling great. Use plenty of hot water on your face before you apply this cream and you will not be disappointed. It's remarkably slick and provides excellent lubrication for you razor. The scent is a very light citrus (mostly lemon) and it is pleasant. I wouldn't mind it if the scent was stronger. Overall great product! Try it!
