Trumpers GFT Cream

[Z man]

I have recently added GFT cream to my arsenal and it is quickly becoming my go to cream. I always seem to get a great close shave with this product.

Nice! I am yet to try GFT- please tell us a little about the scent. I have tried a few other Trumper's creams and they are great performers- I still have Coconut Oil shave cream in my rotation.

Just ordered a tub myself. I can't really describe the scent, but it's one of my faves. Plus it has great protection and gives me a great shave.

Lemon citrus with a musky, mossy, wood base. I prefer the EdT but the cream was pretty close in scent.

I find it very lemony... But it is very pleasant and a great performing cream...

... no experience with the shave cream, but to my nose the sample of GFT cologne I had smelled like a slightly refined version of Murphy's Oil. Probably the only Trumper's cologne that I don't care for.

When I was using cream, this was one of my favorites. I still use the GFT cologne.

It's my favorite. Second only to Murphy's Oil.

Although I have mainly moved to soaps, there are still some creams that I enjoy using and Trumper's GFT is one of them. The fragrance is really just a light, vibrant scent that really buoys me throughout the day when I couple it with the GFT cologne.

I used it this morning with an SR 3226 brush and it really produces just gops of beautiful meringue-like peaks of lather.

For me, this is my favorite Trumper cream and fragrance:

From the Trumper website about GFT:

A fresh and invigorating cologne with top notes of bergamot, lemon and mandarin, a heart of tarragon, lavender and cypress on a musk-like base with cedar and moss.

It starts out with a citrusy blast and then the dry-down turns into a subtle, woodsy scent. IMO, Trumper hit the nail on the head with GFT.

Now if they would only make a shaving soap with the GFT scent.

It's my favorite. Second only to Murphy's Oil.

Perhaps I've cleaned too many hardwood floors in my time...... To be fair, almost all scents that have lemon fragrance in them remind me of cleaning supplies, most notably Murphy's Oil since I have probably too much experience with it. And I do remember GFT getting better after the lemon burned off and the woodsy, musky basenotes (that almost all Trumpers fragrances have) came out. Just can't get over the lemon though.

Thank you all for the info. GFT added to my list of products to be tested!

GFT is one of my top three creams as well. I have an almost empty tube at home and may run out today to grab a new tub.

One of my favs as well. I got a sampler from GFT a little while back it was my fav when I smelled it, used it, and ordered it . Check Amazon I got a tube of it off there for I believe it was around 16 bucks with free shipping.

I have three co-favorites in the GFT line of creams: Almond, Limes, and GFT. The performance of all three is great, as are the scents. These three are my favorite creams period.

So, does GFT smell a lot like Monsieur Balmain cologne?

I'll be joining the GFT crowd as soon as I finish my Trumpers coconut cream. I have a sample of the GFT and my wife loved the scent. I'm even going to add the GFT colonge to my routine.

I got their sample pack with GFT, rose, violet, coconut, limes, sandalwood creams. GFT is by far my favorite scent among these.

 

[bohdathone]

I find it's much more effective than the other Trumper's creams I've tried; sandalwood, rose and the highly-rated coconut oil

 

[Z man]

It is truly great stuff. In my next purchase I will be buying a tub of it. How does it compare with the Rose and Violet creams in regards to performance?
Thanks

I love GFT. I too want a soap in GFT.

 

[OCDshaver]

I am a fan. I tend to use it more during the spring and summer months though. The smell of citrus and warm sunshine just doesn't go with winter.

GFT must be the BEST CREAM in EXISTANCE!!! I can not praise it high enough, This is just sensational, and it is a show stopper, I have almost always been disapointed with any other cream I have tried since, because I know that GFT is just so so good. It is all but unbeatable.
