One discontinued item brought back to life

[Isaac]

The title pretty much sums it up.

You are allowed to bring back one shaving item from the dead. What do you chose and why?

For me, I would choose Coates Tea Tree shaving cream. I really enjoyed the scent and performance of this cream. It was top notch, and Im not too sure that the vintage dried out stuff does justice to what probably came out fresh.

Good call on the Coates, especially in Tea Tree (How many Tea Tree creams are out there today? Not enough; kind of like Bay Rum.)

I wonder if guys that "mostly use soap" would change their mind if they were able to try this.

I have never tried their Tea Tree, but their Sandalwood is one of my favorite renditions of the subject that I have come across yet.

I didn't even answer your question.

If you are bringing back the Tea Tree, then I will bring back... Coate's Superior Rose!

I'd love to try a puck of Williams from around the WWII era, the way it was supposed to be, not the garbage it is today.

QCS Monaco - The perfect cream to use on race day. It would wake you up and leave you feeling ready to take on the world. I loved to use this cream for special occasions. I actually attribute my failure to make the jump to F1 to its disappearance. No, wait...

QCS Tangerine - Way better than most people could imagine. I guess that's why it's gone. No, wait...

QCS Hanami - My favourite cream scent ever. I will always hope for it's return... someday. It's the only way I can convince myself to carry on.

Maybe TOO obvious, but Gillette double edge razors...

Also, original Proraso cream and soap. "Reformulated" is not always better...

Nice boxed DE kits from Gillette...with vendors lined up for personal monogramming.

Lets get serious again instead if futzing around with Merkurs and the Bay!
