Top 5 shaving Creams?

I have only two creams at the moment and probably won't get anymore until I use one of them up.
1. TOBS Lavender
2. TOBS Sandalwood

I am trying not to be a hoarder of soaps/creams although I have read good things about Castle Forbes, Tabac and a few other soaps/creams I'd really like to try. Tabac is probably next on the list as CF is a bit pricey.

I need to find a sample size of Tabac as the scent seems to be a bit polarizing here on B&B

In this order...

1) EJ Sandalwood
2) EJ Limes & Pomegranate
3) CF Lime
4) CF Cedarwood & Sandalwood
5) EJ Aloe Vera
**Cella

**Never quite sure whether or not to count Cella (red tub) as a cream or soap even though it says "crema" (cream) on the packaging. It certainly seems more like a soft soap to me. For those that consider it a cream, it would definitely go to the #1 spot on my list and bump off the EJ Aloe Vera.
 
Proraso White
Castle Forbes Lavender
TOBS Avocado
St James of London Cedarwood & Clarysage
Geo F Trumper Eucris

Not necessarily in that order, and there are plenty that I still need to try.
 
My list keeps changing once I start using more creams......

1- CF Lavender and Lime
2- AOS Lavender, Peppermint and Sandalwood
3- Musgo Real
4- TOBS Sandalwood
5- TOBS Peppermint
 
L'Occitane Cade
TOBS Mr Taylor
TOBS Jeremy Street
Body Shop Maca Root
TOBS Almond

As I ponder your question I realize I am not much of a cream kind of guy. Mostly shave with soaps. I do have two creams I enjoy: Nivea Original and GFT Coconut.
 
I don't have a 5th to add to the list yet, but here are the 4 I've tried

1. Speick
2. TOBS sandalwood
3. Proraso green
4. Cremo
 
1. T&H 1805
2. T&H Grafton (to which I could add Trafalgar and No.10)
3. TOBS Avocado (to which I could add TOBS new Platinum Collection)
4. Proraso Blue (to which I could add Proraso Red)
5. Body Shop Maca Root

As I prefer soaps, I have fewer creams and of this list, only T&H equals the better soaps in my den.
 
Nancy Boy
Proraso / Bigelow
Trumper Coconut
Nivea
AOS Unscented

Well, I have to revise my list. Biotique Bio Palmyra needs to go in there somewhere. This stuff is truly a world-class cream. Unrivalled slickness and post-shave feel. Holy smokes.
 
Lately, I've been using creams more and more instead of soaps. Right now my top five are:

Baume.be
GFT Coconut Oil
GFT Limes
TOBS Cedarwood
Proraso Green

This could all change since I have samples of all three Castle Forbes creams and Alvarez Gomez cream on the way.
