    Default Eton College

    I must say I think I found a new cream! The scent is nice...not amazing, but very nice. It didn't dry my medium-ish sensitive skin out, but it wasn't extremley moisturizing either like a lot of people have said before. I think its a keeper! Next to try is the avocado!

    Part of my rotation and a great cream. I usually don't shave ATG with TOBS eton, as I get better slickness out of soaps such as Cade and mama bears.

    But most days I am doing a WTG and XTG 2 pass shave and the performance, ease of lather, scent, presentation (I love the blue tub), and price are hard to beat for Eton!

    Update on the Eton...Its drying me out a bit! I ordered some TOBS Avocado and Jermyn Street just now. Hopefully they work a little better. The drying is minimal, but I'm on a search for some creams that give me that awesome feeling after the shave :D

    I'm trying Eton next! And you'll love Avocado. It's my favourite so far. So rich.

    I received some Jermyn Street last week. I like its performance, however, its scent is a bit overpowering. I do prefer Taylor's Sandalwood... :)

    I love the scent of TOBS Eton College cream, great performer as well but I've noticed it can begin to dry out a bit if I don't pay attention to my lather. It can take a lot more water than you'd think it needs. I've yet to try Avocado and would love to hear a comparison between the two. It's probably the next one I'm going to buy anyway but I'm restraining myself until I finish one of the ones I have in rotation now (probably the sandalwood as it's lowest)

    Used Eton College yesterday and Avocado today. Both for the first time.

    The Avocado does create a much better lather much quicker in my opinion and does have those moisturising properties everyone is talking about however the scent is not on my top list but YMMV.

    I really like Eton! No problems with lather drying up either. For some reason I feel like T&H 1805 has a very similar scent...at least to my nose.
