Trumpers Cream..Rose..has NO scent?

had a shave with it..I tried to smell my darndest if it had a scent...came to the conclusion it was unscented and just looked pink in color
 
I only have a sample of it but I think it smelled plenty of rose oil. Not sure if the actual lather has that much scent now that I think of it but I have to shave anyways so I'll go whip up a lather and have a shave now and report back :lol:
 
I had a sample, and considering how heavily coloured it is I expected a scent bomb. I detected a faint artificial rose scent in the tub, but by no means powerful. Other GFT creams smell much more.

If you want powerful rose, go with T&H (I haven't tried D.R. Harris). If you, like me, find T&H too powerful, go with TOBS.
 
Coincidentally, I used my Trumpers Rose this AM. Quite the contrary to your statement,my rose cream has an excellent and very noticeable rose scent.Maybe you got an old jar or sample?

Ohh...forgot to say..sample from Trumpers.com

I also got my sample from Trumpers.com.

Just used some of it and lathered up for a two pass shave and I stay by my statement that the scent is there and not hard to notice. The lather does not smell as strong as the actual cream but I still feel a rose scent from it.
 
I recently purchased a tube of Trumpers Coconut Oil and I too was disappointed with the lack of smell. It was sold as having a scent that could be smelled "down the hallway"...

Hm, yes.. The coconut smell was also a bit faint to me. It's a nice scent but it is not very strong. The strength of the scent was on par with the GFT scent, maybe a little weaker but I don't like the GFT as it smells like lotion to me.
 
I got the sample from their website and the scent was kind of weak for rose. Oddly all the other scents were strong.
 
I've tried the Trumpers sample, and it did have a nice rose smell, it wasn't soft or subdued at all.

Currently I have a full size tub of Taylor of Old Bond Rose, and its about the same intensity as the Trumpers sample. Both are excellent creams.
 
I'm just finishing up my GFT samples and I found them to vary widely in scent strength and texture. I can only conclude that the samples cannot be counted on as being representative of the normal sized product. Some of my samples were so dried out they were more like a soft soap than a cream. I ordered directly from Trumpers.
 
Trumpers rose is currently in my rotation. I would describe as a medium strength scent but the scent does dissipate quickly. Scent has left the building 30 minutes after shaving. For some quick scent dissipation is a negative for others a positive.

Welcome to B&B, Flashvictor. I see you are from Lansing -- do you work for Gov. Rick Snyder's office by chance?:001_cool:

Seriously, welcome and I hope you have a long and fruitful stay here. I live up near Ludington myself.
 
My friend
I had same experience with Trumpers and DR Harris and TOBS florals.
I like Trumpers Adjacio VViolet cologne BTW, nice mens cologne.


I switched to Trufitt and Hill, and am very happy with their product, expecially the rose scent.
I feel Trufitt uses a bit more Shea Butter because, this is the nicest shave I have had, over the years.

Nice day
Jimmy

About five years ago I bought a tub of GFT Coconut while on a trip. It was off colour and lacking in scent. Followed up with the vendor and it was a batch issue following reformulation. Stuff can happen. I have a fresh tub of Rose and the scent is very evident. Rose is one cream I try not to run out of. Maybe GFT can offer you an explanation and/or supply you better samples? They would probably like to hear of these varied experiences with their product. Hope you enjoyed their other samples.
