You are forced to thin your shaving cream herd to 3...which ones?

[gwav64]

I started a similar thread in the soaps forum. If you are forced by natural or man-made (or SWMBO?) mandates to thin you shaving cream herd to 3, which ones do you keep? And why? This a theorhetical question and no shavers or shaving creams will be hurt by providing your answers below....

Mine are:

TOBS Sandalwood--great smell and performance.
Proraso (green)--great smell and have had some of my best shaves with it.
Cyril R. Salter Wild Rose--good smell and great cushion, glide, and protection.

 

[CHSeifert]

At the moment:

1. Xpec - all year round
2. Acca Kappa 1869 - for the winter
3. Santa Maria Novella - for the summer

And I would hide these under the sink -

4. Acqua di Parma
5. Castle Forbes Lavender mixed with Penhaligon Endymion 1:1 ratio

He_ll - I'll make it my Top 10 list - I'm an anarchist anyways........

6. Castle Forbes Lime mixed with Penhaligon Blenheims Bouquet 1:1 ratio
7. I Coloniali Rhubarb mixed with GFT Coconut 1:1 ratio
8. Penhaligon Opus 1870 mixed with O Melhor 1:1 ratio
9. Speick mixed with Musgo Real 1:1 ratio
10. DR Harris Windsor mixed with AOS Lemon 1:1 ratio

 

[LegionPrime]

QCS Iced Key Lime
KMF Lavender/Shea
Speick

 

[winstonage]

Proraso
TOBS Eaton College
TOBS Sandalwood

All three for performance and scent, and also price.

I am beginning to think that you might an agent of our SWMBO.

This, at least for me, is much easier to answer than the soap thread:

Al's, QCS and Proraso.

 

[Gingerbread]

Proraso Green - great performer and phenomenal feel in summer.
KMF Key Lime - nice, refreshing scent.
Edwin Jagger Sea Buckthorn - probably the best smelling thing in the world.

 

[sparco]

1) Musgo Real - Fresh and delicious scent with a thick and comfortable lather (My go-to cream)
2) l'occitane CADE shaving cream - Lovely scent and it builds a fine lather if I use a bit more product, together with my soft water.
3) Fitjar Telemark or Fitjar Wildthing - Lovely scents and its an artisan cream from my country.

 

[Mendel]

1. Castle Forbes lime
2. Nancy boy signature
3. Truefitt & Hill 1805

 

[dharasick]

Truefitt & Hill Sandalwood
AoS Sandalwood
CF Lime

T&H 1805, Proraso Green, and TOBS Shaving Shop are all a close 4th though.

 

[7 O Menthol]

AOS Ocean Kelp
Proraso Sandalwood
La Toja

(and I kept a tub of S.Maria in my pocket... but you don't know anything about that...)

I promise...it's only curiosity and that I am in no way connected with any SWMBO group, agency, political action committee, organization, corporation, partnership, or firm. LOL!

 

[Exapno]

I've only got three

 

[The Chandos]

QCS Mysore Sandalwood
Tabula Rasa Dark Lavender
Trumpers Coconut

 

[Gearoid]

I only have three:

1. Castle Forbes Lime
2. Castle Forbes Lavender
3. I Coloniali Rhubarb

I prefer soaps.

 

[Jack-in-the-Green]

1. D.R. Harris Windsor - love the scent, and I get excellent performance from it.
2. T&H Trafalger - love the scent, though the performance isn't as goo for me as the Harris.
3. KMF unscented - to make super lathers with all the soaps I'll be buying instead.

 

[The Nid Hog]

I'll restrict it to what's available now:

CF Lavender
AK 1869
Trumper's Coconut Oil

If I could keep one more it would be Domenico Caraceni 1913

 

[Tkocloser]

I'm down to these 3 (for now)

1. Nancy Boy Signature
2. Nancy Boy Replenishing
3. Castle Forbes Cedar & Sandalwood

 

[Triad]

AOS Sandlewood
CO Bigelow
AOS Ocean Kelp

 

[edgerunner]

D.R. Harris Windsor
T&H 1805
...too many for the 3rd place
