    Default AoS lemon versus Kiehl's?

    Has anybody tried both of these? Which do you prefer, and why? Also, how is the AoS lavender?

    Thanks in advance.

    I quite like AoS lavender, though it's the first and only lavender I've tried. If the soap/cream performs well, then the scent is what I'm interested in. Too many products have a "barely there" scent to me. I don't want to be inundated in a scent, but I do want it to register and be pleasant. Aos does that for me, and performs too. And I don't consider it expensive like many seem to.

    I also tried AoS's sandlewood soap, and at the moment, it's nothing special to me. Maybe even a negative with the scent - but I'll keep it awhile to make sure it's not my cup of tea.

    I've tried the AOS lemon and scentless, and I liked them both. The lemon fragrance is light, and they both work like a dream.

    I haven't used the Kiehl's, but I've heard mixed reports about them. I checked out an open jar the other day, and I found the scent vaguely unpleasant. Of course, that might change when you work it up into a lather, and it might give you a great shave.

    I've used the Kiehl's Lite Flight Cream (if thats what you're referencing) and I'm not a fan. It lathers quite poorly and the scent is kind of medicinal. It does have some menthol in it so you might like that. My tub is about 90% full, PM me if you're interested in Trading.

    I've tried just about all of Kiehl's products except womens and they're all great except the shave creams. I wouldn't bother unless you plan to use brushless shave cream.
