Review: Incredible value for an underrated product - I can’t believe how inexpensive this is, compared to fancy shave soaps for double the price, and it performs just as well. I’m a woman who wet shaves, and most products geared towards wet shavers are fragranced with aggressively masculine scents, so I appreciate the gender-neutral almond scent. It reminds me of marzipan. I typically use a synthetic brush and load the cream directly from the jar before lathering on my legs, but I have also used a boar brush successfully. The lather is thick and protective, but not so dry that I don’t get a good glide. My skin is stupidly sensitive, prone to breaking out or reacting poorly to products (Cremo irritated my poor legs dreadfully), but I’ve had zero irritation, rashes, or ingrown hair with this shave cream. My skin actually feels more moisturized when I use this as opposed to other shave soaps, so I don’t have to use as much lotion afterwards. It doesn’t matter what razor I use (usually a Merkur or Henson), or what blade I’m using (Gillette Silver Blue, Astra Platinum, Feather, or Treet Platinum), Cella works with them all, and only requires the tiniest amount to give loads of lather. At the rate this shaving cream is being used up, this small jar is going to last a couple of years. I’m definitely going to buy more when I eventually run out.
Review: Slick, rich thick lather, leaves face soft and good moisture. I like the marzipan scent - It's a great addition to my shaving creams and soaps. My shave: I have a medium beard, shave with hot water or after shower, Merkur Mk34c razor, oil or cream pre shave, apply lather, 2 to 3 passes, alum bar, aftershave balm. The first thing I noticed was the smell and the second was it’s not quite a cream and not quite a shaving soap puck. You probably can apply it directly on a moist face with your palms like Proraso and Cremo creams, but I use a brush. Lather - whips up a nice thick and fluffy lather but not at first, I started using less water and that seemed to do the trick. I also used a stiffer brush and it lathered up really fast in about 30 seconds. Scent - I like. It smells exactly like marzipan which is an almond paste candy covered with rich chocolate or maybe a rich chocolate cherry almond slice of cake selected off of a dessert tray at a fine restaurant. Shaving - goes on rich, covers face completely, soaks beard soft, gives a smooth clean shave on two to three passes although you can get a pretty good shave on one pass in a hurry. However, it drys out on my face, I apply to entire face but I shave one side at a time then brush the other side to moisten and shave. My first shaves I tried it sans pre shaves, by itself it is very slick so there’s no cuts and no burns. With pre shave oil or cream lather up with one pass good shave, two passes or more I get a great shave that leaves softness and moisture on my face.

## Features

- ITS NOT A SHAVING CREAM, IT'S CELLA - The secrets of its success lie in the strict production process; the carefully selected top ingredients, saponification using the hot-mix method in a steam boiler, and the fact that it is slowly matured in special temperature-controlled tanks.
- WHY IT IS FANTASTIC - The original recipe, which dates back to 1899, ensures a frothy, compact, softening high performance foam that moisturises the face during shaving, preventing irritation and leaving the skin incredibly soft. Its characteristic almond scent and the ease with which the razor glides after application make for a truly unique shaving experience.
- DIRECTIONS FOR USE - To obtain a soft, firm foam, wet the brush in warm water, pick up the cream soap and begin to lather it in a bowl with circular movements, then lather up the face, spreading the foam over the skin evenly,
- PROUD HERITAGE - This Cella formula has been a favorite of master barbers throught Europe for 125 Years. It's thick rich lather, comforting almond scent, lubrication and emoliation have made this shave soap a leading brand. The family owned Cella business maintains the highest quality standards - old world craftsmanship never goes out of style
- MADE IN MILAN, ITALY SINCE 1899 - Cella is proudly a family owned business of 4 generations that does not compromise on quality

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gentle and excellent shave!
*by P***A on March 5, 2025*

I have sensitive skin, but I had read reviews that Cella was fine for sensitive skin, so I tried it and I love it! The scent is a mild almond cherry and is very pleasing. It doesn't make me sneeze or irritate my skin, which is always my problem with soaps. It is a soft cream/soap and it lathers exceptionally well. The foam is slick and protective, and it is tied for the best performing soap I have, along with Proraso white and Mitchell's Wool Fat. I've only used it for a week, so I don't know how long the puck will last, but since it's a croap I doubt it'll last as long as the hard soaps. Still, it's a fantastic shaving experience and well worth every penny. Right now it's my favorite shaving soap and I highly recommend it! Edit: I had assumed that since it was not a hard soap that it wouldn't last long, but I've had it for months and have barely made a dent in it. It's only been these past few weeks that I've been using it everyday though. Still, I've used it enough to say that it is a great buy for the money. Edit 2: It lasted approximately 8 months of shaving 4-5 times a week!
