My wife loves the scent of cucumber lotions and such, so I'm looking around for a cucumber shaving cream. I've seen eShave's.....anyone know of any others?
Any cucumber shaving creams besides eShave?

I think Nancy Boy uses cucumber. I don't have any experience with it though.
To me, TOBS avocado SC smells like cucumber.
Yes I believe Nancy Boy has cucumber but I haven't tried it either. Wanted to try it but shipping to where I live is a little expensive. I've heard it supposed to be pretty good brushless or with.
I believe one of the RSC's creams is?
I the signature scent is different, but the Nancy Boy Replenishing smells exactly like cucumbers. In fact it lists cucumber within the first sentence of their little shtick of the product on their website. If I were you, however I wouldn't necessarily go with the Replenishing cream for it's scent, as it won't stick around long anyway. If I were you I'd get a cream you like, wife be damned, and get the Replenishing a/s lotion... I mean, unless the cream is for her, then by all means
.
The NB replenshing A/S gel is a definite "go to" but it does not linger.
Peruse the Nancy Boy web site for more info or email Eric in customer service, very helpful fellow.

The Nancy Boy Replenishing is a fine cream. I bought the sample size, which is still pretty big. What you could do is to order some other products (their lavender-geranium laundry soap is superb, and their bath bars are the best I've tried), and if you get to $50(assuming you're a member of the Nancy Boy club), the shipping is free. The Replenishing bath bar smells wonderful.

Thanks everyone! I look forward to checking these out.
I believe it's $75 or $80 for free shipping.
I think their Signature Cream is one of the best creams ever. I love the stuff.
Thayer's makes a Cucumber Witchhazel and Em's Place makes a few cucumber based aftershave products:

As mentioned, Nancy Boy Replenishing. It is scented with cucumber hydrosol, so it is very natural and quite strong in scent (strong, as in very present, but not overly potent). The Replenishng balm is fantastic, but can be tacky if you use more than a pea sized dab. The pair are great if you are shaving with sunburn/windburn...very soothing.
The Origins shaving cream is close but sucks.... But i like their after shave, firefighter..... Im sure she'll like that... my GF loves it and its cucumber
The Nancy Boy Replenishing shaving cream is definitely cucumber, just as folks have said. Very pleasant stuff. Nice shaving cream. I have not had a chance to try the balm. Very soothing for sure.
The Nancy Boy balm is on par with the cream. Quality products, unfortunate name.
The Body Shop just re-introduced their Cucumber Face Cleanser. It smells a bit too floral to be cucumber but she might like it.
