I think the results of any review are highly susceptible to YMMV. Everyone has a differing opinion on the various qualities that each Cream has, so I have devised a few questions to take that into account.
Question #1: You're the Minister of Creams, and have the final say for any Cream that is branded in Britain. Which single quality, of each cream, would you change to make the product better? Scent, glide/slickness, cushion, post shave feel, etc. Feel free to comment on each aspect of each Cream, but remember that you can only change one of the aspects.
Question #2: If you haven't, would you buy/try a different scent from either Brand? If you have tried a different scent, which is it and how does it rate to the Sandalwood version?
That's pretty easy for me.
Question 1: For TOBS I would like to see it a bit slicker. I do not find that changing the water amounts one way or the other adds much to the slickness. For T and H I would like to see a bit more pronounced of a scent. I'm not commenting on the scent itself, because that is completely preference, but I would like to see a bit more of it.
Question 2: I would put T and H into my cabinet based off of performance, but would want to sample first. I am not a "cologne-y" scent guy, in general. TOBS has a ton of scents to choose from, and I would definitely look into sampling, and then buying full tubs.
I would really like to thank both of these companies for letting us do this. It was a lot of fun. Just their being willing to participate gives them a big leg up in choosing product going forward.
A special thanks to Dane for putting it all together. It had to have been time consuming, and I appreciate it.
