    Default Insane with sample creams!

    I noticed today TSD's sample creams were available, I loved the sub zero aftershave milk, so i went a little hog wild.
    I picked up the following scents:
    • Bamboo and Teak
    • Motor Oil
    • Egyptian Spice
    • Mayan Gold
    • Leather
    • Coffee
    • Peppercorn
    • Subzero
    • Vetiver
    • Bergamot


    Hopefully, this will keep me blissfully happy until the end of the year!

    Since I'm a newbie, can you tell me about the sample creams... where to get them, etc.? Thanks for any help you can give me.

    I did the same thing and documented my journey of scents over there. Bought 15 scent samples of creams and ranked them.
    YMMV? I don't think so.

    There's a couple places you can get samples. The topic gets covered here every so often, so I won't go into too much detail, but probably one of the better places to get samples is from Trumpers. You'll have to pay the cost of shipping, but they'll send you samples of most of their creams and skin foods if you request it during checkout.

    Anyway, here are some threads that cover samples pretty well. The link is for cologne samples, and while I know you asked about cream samples, but it's lists a couple places that also offer cream samples like T&H.

    I've paid for samples from the Shave Den.

    I've received free samples from Colonial Drug in MA, Zirh, Molton Brown, Kiehl's, Body Works, and Origins.

    Write to any manufacturer and ask nicely (complimenting their products helps!) Most will send you something for free. Some will ask you pay shipping. The really big companies usually sell premade sample packs on their website.
