How many creams do you have in rotation?

Hi all,

I have 3 in rotation at the moment T&H limes and 1805 and TOBS Sandalwood. Is 3 too many? How many do you gents have?
 
I try to NOT have a lot of creams on hand as they do not have as long a shelf life as soaps do.

For creams I now have.....

Truefitt & Hill: Grafton
Truefitt & Hill: 1805
Truefitt & Hill Trafalgar
Geo. F Trumper's: Coconut oil cream
Geo. F Trumper's: Rose
Geo. F Trumper's: Sandalwood
Geo. F Trumper's: Lavender
Gentleman's Refinery cream
D.R. Harris: Sandalwood
Kiss my face: Lavender
Kiss my face: Key Lime
Kiss my face: Green tea & Bamboo
Real Shaving Company cream
 
Off the top of my head I count 26, although some are in more regular rotation than others. But I hadn't realised it was quite so many, which is why I'm in the sabbatical next year!

GFT Limes in a tub has been my go-to for a couple of months.
I also really like Al's "Lather Bomb" Calypso.

I also have some GFT Sandalwood, Tabac, and SIM in tubes. I use them for "Uberlather"
 
Right now 4 are in my rotation. Hirsh Luxury lemon, TOBS Jermyn St., TOBS Eton College, and TOBS Almond. The almond and Jermyn St are about gone so I am due to replace those. The Hirsh Luxury Sandalwood will be added into my rotation to replace the almond and another tub of Jermyn St. to replace the soon to be empty one. Plus I want to pick up a tub of GFT Coconut and a tub of TOBS Avocado.
 
Looks like I have about ten in my rotation at the moment. I used the Derby Lavender this morning...mmmmmm!

I'm a soap guy, so not too many -- just enough to make some interesting superlathers.

  • Trumper's Rose
  • Trumper's Almond
  • Ingram's
  • Erasmic (old formula)
  • Erasmic (new formula)
Recently used up my tube of Dr. Selby's Lavanda (lavander).
 
I am down to four, from a high of 11

Geo F Trumpers Violet
Tuefitt & Hill Rose
Nancy Boy Signature
Geo F Trumpers Coconut

I may add a Lime at some point (brand TBD) and maybe a tube of T&H (1805/Trafalgar/Grafton) - but the core team will remain
 
I have 5 creams that are used in my rotation:

Proraso Red
Taconic Eucalyptus and Mint
TOBS Coconut Oil
C&E Sienna
C&E Nomad
 
Domino, Kupa, Viking Sensitive and Lea Menthol in the rotation. Back stock is a whole other beast.

I wouldn't call it a rotation since I'm tryin to finish my creams and killing them off one by one. I have 16 3 of which are AK 1869. Everything else is something different. One is about 2 uses from going to the graveyard and I'm trying to sell 2 others. Hopefully I'll be done with my creams in the next 3-5 years.
