Proraso - Cypress and Vetiver

Cannot say I've seen this before. Anyone tried it yet. The scent sounds pretty heavenly. There is also a lime version and a wood/spice version.

I have the same on order along with the Wood/spice version. Thanks for putting me on to G&C. I didn't know about them before.

I like it...
It sounds awesome.I have smelled locally the new spiced proraso and it was modern and nice but i suspect this might be better.

 

[Rotflmao]

Well look what arrived today.

 

[G.W.]

Jeez, that's quite the haul! How's that Vetyver smell?

 

[BSAGuy]

That does sound outstanding.

I want a full report please.

I shaved with mine today. The scent is very reminiscent of Proraso Green, but different at the same time. You know you're using proraso...but it is definitely different in a good way. Lather seemed a little slicker, but it's been awhile since I used any proraso than blue.

The only problem is the professional packaging... Too much quantity for personal use.

These creams are awesome. Both smell great with the Wood And Spice seeming a lot stronger that the Cypress And Vetyver. Had one of the best shaves that I've had with a straight. As for the packaging issue, I just put some of the creams in the small jars that I typically use for soaps. My only regret is that I wish that I defunked that new boar brush a little better before using it with the new creams. I would 100% recommend these creams.

Packaging solved. Just dip the brush and go.

Saw them a bit ago, have been really curious to see how they are. Looking forward to a full review.

This new Proraso cream seems interesting. But it is very expensive, it's double the price of the classic green one. Is it so much better than the green one to justify this price? I doubt...

There is almost double the amount of product; 275ml instead of 150ml.

The Proraso green shaving cream also comes in 500ml for ~20 USD (e.g.).

Proraso green 150ml costs 4,95 euros. 2 tubes (300ml) cost 9,90euros.
The new ones (275ml) cost 17,5 euros. Its's, for sure, almost double the price.

You are correct

I love the green as well as all of the Proraso line. These creams are different and formulated for single edges. It is slicker and they really nailed the scents in my opinion. I feel that they are worth the added cost and will buy again. Besides, the Proraso green is really low cost to start with.
