So, where did you get it and where are the pictures? :detective:
 
It exists, and I have proof! First shave will be tonight...we will see how it goes.

Pics or it didn't happen, Jay :biggrin1:

Actually I just talked to Chris from shaving.ie and he tries hard to get it in his store, but for some odd reason Proraso is very slow with the launch of the blue........
 
I have the blue After Shave Balm - very thick stuff, have to pound the flask to get it out, just like old ketchup.

Smells like nothing......aloe vera and very very mild anise......

Interesting, I wonder if the soap is going to be a weak scent as well. Red was disappointing for me.

Claus...maybe there is a sample in your future to test out with your new brushes (which arrived today).

Clause nailed the description of the scent pretty well...anise is the predominant note, but it is fairly faint. Have yet to lather with it and I will update once I do. I purchased it off ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayIS...44&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:3160#ht_2150wt_794

Nice pics, Jay :001_cool:

Would like that very much - great to hear you got the brushes, thanks once again Mate for yet another HUGE favor :thumbup:
 
Shave with this soap is exactly what you would expect from a product with Proraso on the label.
 
Where can this mythical shave cream be purchased? The eBay seller referenced in the post above is closed. No others available on eBay at this time. I'd love to try it. I regularly use the green tube & have the red being delivered today.

Thanks,

Scott

I have used the Proraso Blue shaving cream twice, after I purchased it a few days ago. The performance is very good and comparable to the Green IMHO. But the scent is disappointing for me. It's an overly sweet liquorice (the cream contains an extract of it) that is not for my taste.

Have you tried the Gentlemens Refinery black ice cream (which has an anise scent? If so, how do the scents compare?
