Here you go.
One last word of farewell, Dear Master and Mistress.
Whenever you visit my grave,
say to yourselves with regret
but also with happiness in your hearts
at the remembrance of my long happy life with you:
"Here lies one who loved us and whom we loved."
No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you,
and not all the power of death
can keep my spirit
from wagging a grateful tail.

Derby "Normal" Shaving Cream. Clean, soapy and will not be confused with a citronella candle or urinal cake.

I've never heard of shaving with a candle, nor a urinal cake. Is this a Chicago thing? Originally Posted by the_edski

Correct, great stuff IMO Originally Posted by drlvegas

O Melhor has an "Ivory Soap" smell to my nose, another clean scent is La Toja SC.

Godrej pucks go for about forty cents in India. Someday I will have one shipped to me so I can see what the fuss is about. Originally Posted by smalltank

If you can't find a product that smells like Ivory soap, Erasmic may fit as a second choice. Surprisingly Arko creams smell nothing like the soap stick, the smell of the Maximum Comfort is also nonexistent and it lathers up really well. Also, Arko creams haven't been reformulated in the past couple of years so you can actually find some (Bestshave.net has it).

+ 1 on arko. The real shaving company isn't too great but smells like a mix between ivory and something medicinal.

TOBS Shaving Shop and Godrej are the cleanest smelling creams I have come across.

Palmolive Classic basically smells like generic soap. It's about as "soapy" smelling as you can get.
