Brinell cream

I was warned by the friend that gave me this tube ,that Brinell was a second rate Croatian cream.I noticed the lubrication was not the best in the world,but using a treet dura-sharp on it's second shave ,loaded into a lightweight black tip,I had a trouble free ,no nick,no scrape shave.This Croation cream does not skimp on the coumarin ! It's loaded ! Smells great to me,and even after a dozen face rinses ,I could still smell the coumarin clean white soap scent on my face.This cream contains helanthus annuus,sunflower extract,and is free from menthol.

Oh Croatia...how I miss you.

I wish I had been interested in traditional wet shaving when I backpacked through Europe. That would've been so easy to pick up a ton of stuff.

Brinell is unlikely to be second rate. It is manufactured by Saponia who, for many years, made Gillette Shave Cream under licence for the Yugoslav (later Croatian) market. The quality of that cream was excellent.

I never had a problem with Brinell , always a nice lather.
 
I tried Brinell and the lather is very rich as well as easy to whip up. To me the scent is the deal breaker. The Serbian made Palmira cream smells a lot nicer.
