So I'm trying to convince my Dad to get into wet shaving. He typically only like unscented creams. I wanted to try to broaden his horizons a bit. So I was wondering if anyone knows of a good light scented cream that I could start him off with.
Great Light Scented Shave Cream?

T&H Ultimate Comfort 
IMO top shelf and one of my favorite (if not my favorite).

My favourite are Simpsons Luxury and T&H Ultimate Comfort. Both provide a slick and thick lather for a great, close shave.
Your profile does not say where you are located.
If you are located in the US you should be able to find Kiss My Face shaving creams locally to you.
Stick your zip code into the Kiss My Face store locator to find a retailer near you and grab a tube ($5) or pump bottle ($8) of any scent. The scents are VERY light and subtle and they make an unscented if any of their light scents are too much

These are amazing creams and one of the easiest to lather. They are sold as "brushless" but stick a brush to it and you will have a lava flow of slick, luxurious, lather to use.

TOBS Mr. Taylor is nice and fairly lightly scented. Erasmic cream is also very lightly scented and lathers well.
+1 on Kiss My Face creams. If a soft soap is a possibility, I would also recommend Proraso White.
Perhaps someone will disagree with me, but I find that the Goodfellas shaving cream from Al's Shaving has a very mild scent. It smells very fresh while lathering and once shaving is completed, there is no lingering smell. I find that it is very protective and does not irritate my fairly sensitive skin. I've never had a shaving cream create so much lather with so little product loaded on the brush, either. Very good product.
I think the RazoRock Zi' Peppino to be very lightly scented. I also think Cella's almond scent is very subdued. Both are excellent performers. (Both are technically croaps, I suppose.)
Proraso 'Blue' (Vitamin E & Aloe ?) has very little discernible odour and is a fairly nice cream. And you won't be out much if he doesn't like it.
A perfect cream for him to try is the T&H Ultimate Comfort. A great overall performer with just a very slight 'hint' of lavender that is barely noticeable. Craig
+1 These are really excellent creams.
Spencer and Devon Unscented, T&H Ultimate Comfort, and AOS Unscented are all good. If I had to rank them I'd put the in that order as well. The reason I like Spencer and Devon so much is because its aloe based instead of water and provides a super slick shave.
The fat.
+1 on T&H Ultimate Comfort.
