Item Description
Price: More than Trumper's, less than Castle Forbes. Works for me, especially since my tub is far denser than Trumper's and goes a long, long way. I only ever need half as much.
Quality: Top-notch. This is upper-upper English, deservedly priced above the three Ts in my opinion.
Scent: Pure lavender. Not having tried Castle Forbes I can't say it's the best on the market, but it's fantastic, and this is from a guy that doesn't particularly like floral scents to start with. It's neither powdery nor feminine; it just smells like gardens. Definitely a Spring or early Summer scent.
Latherability: Straightforward. Not as rich as Coate's, but a step above T&H or Trumper's. Favourably comparable to Taylor's.
Efficacy: One of the best creams out there, period. There's no "slick" scum like a soap tends to produce, and there's no massive cushion like Trumper's Coconut. This cream doesn't have a distinctive feature, other than that it produces consistent BBS shaves with ease.
Moisturizing Properties: Quite good. While not exactly hydrating, the cream doesn't dry your face out either. A pleasant splash is all that's necessary afterwards.
Packaging: Meh. It's a tub.
