Review: Great product! - Great lather, smooth shave and a light scent. Great product!
Review: Pretty Good - I went back to wet shaving (from a Braun electric razor) early this year. After 30 years of shaving almost every day with the electric, I retired and now only shave 2-3 times a week. Electric just didn't work for that. After a few months with seveal different multiblade razors, I wasn't satisfied. In July, a started using a DE razor. For reference I use a Viking with the slightly longer handle. After a few weeks of shaving, getting my technique down and testing several popular blades, I have settled on, and regularly use Feather blades. I have used the standard Proraso tube, as well as this one, Cremo, and Taylor of Old Bond Steet St. James collection in a tub. I have come to prefer the Taylor. I still give this 5 stars overall. If there were 1/2 stars, I might take 1/2 off, but only COMPARATIVELY to the Taylor (maybe fairer to say Taylor would get a 5+). This creme has a very nice fresh smell and is supposed to be easier on the skin. I am not sure I see any difference from the regular Proraso Cream. It lathers well with a brush and lubricates reasonbly well. But the lather doesn't last well. I find that by the time I finish one side of my face the remaining lather nas thinned out and dried some and I have to constantly re-lather. But that is not a huge deal. The TOB lather lasts much longer, and lubricates better in my opinion. For tube cream users I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this. I really like the Proraso products and use their aftershave and a couple of their colognes regularly now.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I got this the other day (love Poraso) but this one seems to have little beads in it...is something wrong or is this supposed to have them?**
A: A little tough to get out of the tube but no beads.  My guess is that Amazon has so much of this stuff laying around that you are bound to find something not right with it when it comes to your door.

**Q: Is the tube supposed to be foil sealed upon arrival?**
A: No, the tube comes in a box but there is no foil seal.

**Q: What does it smell like?**
A: The blue one has a clean "soapy" scent. Not overpowering and also is not a cologne type either. Just clean smelling shave.

**Q: How long does this tube last?**
A: I've had my current tube about 2 1/2 months and it'll probably last me another 2-3months. That's shaving most everyday for me.

*by G***O on August 31, 2025*

This is such a great product, almost feels like it was made just for me. There is no skin irritation, the razor glides smoothly and the scent is very refreshing. After decades of trying various soaps, this is my forever shaving cream.
