DELMY shaving creams

[malocchio]

Two new creams from India . Purchased mine from the Razor Company , both tubes $10 shipped ......These are economy creams and work just fine .Economy in this case means they are not very concentrated , so you use a little more, the price is right for sure. The Lemon Fresh smells nice , not like fresh lemon juice but more like a Lemon Head cand

y .... The Menthol Plus is not so " plus" , I could feel no chill. A light masculine scent , and the cream works fine as a lubricant . Neither one leaves a dry feeling after rinsing...Decent creams for a great price .

Better than Old Spice?

Old Spice is a little more concentrated...scent wise the OS Lime is a completly different scent from the Delmy Lemon Fresh ..... Both are nice , and both are slightly " inaccurate " from the 2 citrus fruits true scent.

Interesting. Thanks for the write-up, malocchio.

Much appreciated!

Even the lemon after shave cologne doesn’t smell like freshly squeezed lemon juice. Most manufacturers use limonene, citral and/or citronella.

I love citronella..... in the 1960s I used a soap puck that was citronella scented, maybe Williams ?

Thanks for the review Ron. I have not seen many Indian Shaving Creams out here in Australia before.

Man oh man it’s really a case of YMMV because I find the Delmy Menthol to be pleasantly cooling. Not a face freezer but it’s got a good enough dose of menthol.
