In no particular order
KMF Key Lime w/ Bigelow (Unless the QCS IKL counts as a cream)
Speick (Even though I'm not a fan of the smell I can not deny the fantastic shave)
Nancy Boy
I've long since switched to soaps but I do keep one cream around to use: Speick. Just can't beat the herbal lavender scent and it performs well above its price point.
Kiss My Face
Men-u
(not a cream, but a lathering gel) Malcolm's Miracle
Kiss My Face is just a great bargain that performs like something far more expensive. Men-u and Malcolm's are some seriously slick concoctions, and I do mean Slippery with a capital S.
Depends on whether you're talking about scent or performance. For performance, here are my top 3:
1. Castle Forbes (Lavender or Lime)
2. D R Harris Arlington
3. Penhaligon (Blenheim Bouquet or Endymion)
For scent, my top three are:
1. Geo. F. Trumper GFT
2. D R Harris Arlington
3. Penhaligon Blenheim Bouquet
