Proraso pre-shave cream scent overwhelms shaving cream scent

[droth455]

I just started using the Proraso pre-shave cream and I really like what it does for me, but the scent overwhelms whatever cream I'm using, even GFT Coconut. Yesterday when I was lathering up I got some of the coconut cream in my nose and I left it there so I could actually smell it. Anyone use something similar to Proraso that is unscented?

Which Proraso are you using? I use the white pre-shave cream, and find that it does not overwhelm the scent of the cream that I choose.

I have the green one with menthol and eucalytus. Is the white unscented?

No, the white is green tea and oatmeal. I'm guessing this is a much weaker scent than the eucalyptus.

I have both, and I do agree the green is very strong. I find the white to have a more citric scent, but still has the eucalyptus smell, although completely toned down from the green.

If it helps, you can let your pre-shave sit on your skin for a bit, and rinse it before lathering. That may solve the issue of the overpowering scent.
