Musgo Real, Proraso Red, Stone Cottage Soapworks and Arko, so far the best are Musgo Real and Stone Cottage Soapworks ( get their sample kit) actually all four are fine but if I had to pick in order Musgo, Stone Cottage, Proraso, Arko. Enjoy....

I can't believe it all arrived at the same time.
I might have to shave tonight.
I have been shaving off and on with a brush for years; but, mostly the cheapest brush and soap I could find. I had no idea it made any difference. I was introduced to Tabac on this forum and I couldn't believe the difference.
Well, at least it will be cheaper than my Scuba Diving addiction.

 
From the Crypt I pulled out a new tube of C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream last night and the hand written date on the box said I bought it April 2011. I really stocked up back then when Bed and Body Works were running their by 2 get on free deal and other crazy promotions in 2010 -11. I got about 5 tubes left.

Wow that is some well aged cream. Has the years in storage treated it well?

I got a tube of Yardley Elegance and Tabac (Yes Tabac available with a local seller in India:001_cool:) and Old Spice (all 3 local variants Original, Fresh Lime and Musk) on the way
 
Waiting on some Proraso Red, and a few TOBS products direct from them.

Tub of TOBS Aloe Vera (I could not wait for it to be released Stateside)
Tube of TOBS Grapefruit
Tube of TOBS Coconut

I'm waiting for the stores online to replenish their stocks in Castle Forbes Lime. The Cedarwood/Sandalwood is amazing.
 
Picked up a tub of Col. Conk Santa Fe Cedar, and a tube of Moroccan Myrrh (from Crabtree & Evelyn) today. Haven't tried either one before but I am looking forward to using both.
