I've tried almost all of the ToBS.
St. James is my absolute #1.
I didn't like rose.

Have you used pre-shave oil before?
Also, are you getting good shaves with what you have now?
I've just sent an email inquiring about the Shaving Essentials sample pack. I'm looking forward to trying it out.
I have a pre-shave oil question though. Would olive oil work just as well? I mean, the Romans used it to shave with, so it can't be that bad, right?
DO you put it on and then rinse off or do you put it on under the shave cream?
Would that dilute the lather?
I'm getting better shaves than I ever have now that I've started using a brush and the Speick Cream, but my problem is getting the stubble around the jawline, neck and chin.
I usually do two passes...one with the grain and one against, and that takes care of 90% of my beard and gives me a very close shave. But patches of short stubble still remain, forcing me to do a third pass (and I use a Schick Quattro).
I've never used pre-shave oil before.

Also, apropos of nothing, the GFT violet is pretty amazing.
