Truefitt & HillShaving Cream Bowl - No. 10 - Premium Glycerin-Based Lather, Smooth Glide, and Hydration for a Luxurious Shave, Formulated for Sensitive and Irritated Skin - 6.7 oz.

I liked the scent. Not my favorite, but I like it. I used a small amount to work up a lather, literally a leas sized amount and it lathered up well considering the amount. The scent stayed after I washed my hands for quite a while. Very pleased with it. I'm looking forward to trying the other ones T&F has to offer. I recommend it.

Excellent quality product and will always have on hand. Lasts a long time if you know how to use it and is one of my favorites.

Truefitt and Hill is usually my preferred brand of shaving cream. I have tried other scents, and like the “Trafalgar” scent as well. I look forward to trying all of the different scents. I recommend applying the T&H pre-shave oil before applying this shaving cream, for an even smoother shave.

As with all Truefitt & Hill products this is an excellent shaving cream. I was pleasantly surprised by the light refreshing scent of this cream. I usually stay away from the perfumed products and was a little hesitant with trying this scent, but after reading other reviews that commented on the light fresh scent I relented and decided to give it a whirl. As I work in a medical practice I do not like to wear heavy scents, this was not an issue with the 1805 fragrance. I found it to be light with a mild spice that leaves a pleasant undertone throughout the day, I would equate it to maybe a classic ocean faring scent, my wife says it smells more floral (I was unable to detect this floral aspect), and states that she does like the scent.The cream itself is excellent, as would be expected from this very reputable manufacturer. There were no disappointments to be found here. The cream is very luxuriant and incredibly slick and smooth, and I did get an incredibly close shave, that resulted in neither razor burn nor nicks. I will say that this is a premium shaving cream and probably does work better with a higher end badger brush, probably best badger at the least. I say this due to the fact that it worked best with slightly more water than I would use with a D R Harris or TOBs cream but closer to what I expect when using the G F trumper creams. I state this only because I know the difference I achieve in lather between my pure badger brushes and my silver tip brushes as the latter are able to retain much more water. I do not view this as a negative as this is a premium cream and thereby may be expected to work optimally with premium accessories (this is of course an assumption on my part). I will however test this cream with my pure badger brushes to confirm my speculation and will update this review If I find my that I am in error. (I apologize to any boar brush users as I am unable to test this, as I do not own one)UPDATE!!! I must admit that I was mistaken in my earlier conclusion about brushes. I used my least expensive pure badger  His Tweezerman Deluxe Shaving Brush  (my travel brush) thinking I would work up from here. The shaving cream lather was excellent, while it was slightly thicker than I prefer when using my silver tip brush, it still lathered excellently. I was concerned that it would not hold lather for all three of my passes and my final touch up pass, but the concern proved false as there was ample lather for the complete shave. I did add drips of water to base of brush through lathering process in order to thin a little as it did remain a bit thicker on the brush. I therefore must revise my earlier comment and say this is just an excellent cream regardless of the brush you are using. Although my personal preference would be that I like the consistency offered by a brush that retains a little more water.I shave with the same ritual daily, only substituting one item at a time when trying new products. 1. Homemade shave oil that I apply in the shower and allow to soak in to beard and skin. 2. Face wash with Musco Real Glycerin lime soap. After showering. 3.  Taylor of Old Bond Street Herbal Pre-shave Gel 4.  Truefitt & Hill 1805 Shave Cream Jar 5. Applied with  Kent Brushes Shaving Brush Large Size (BK8) 6.  Edwin Jagger De89bl Double Edge Safety Razor Chrome Plated  with  Feather Hi-Stainless Platimum Double Edge Razor Blades 100 Ct 7. Hot then cold water wash then alum applied.  RazoRock Alum Block  (Clean and replace shaving gear while this is allowed to sit on face, followed by cold water rinse.) 8.  Geo F. Trumper's Limes Skin Food, 200ml  Applied to towel dried skin and not diluted with water. Two drops is sufficient to cover entire face and neck. I allow this to soak in while I brush teeth. 9. Aftershave by Feather (unscented during work days) non work days  Castle Forbes Lime Oil Aftershave Balm  Again applied to dried skin.

I’ve been using this product for years. It’s the best shave ever. Costs a bit more but it lasts a long time and doesn’t take much to get a full, rich, foamy lather.

The Ultimate is hands down my favorite. I have tried almost all the different scents and just returned back to this one and I have to say that I’m here to stay. Nothing wrong with the other options, but this one works best for me. I have overly dry skin with adult acne and this one seems to irritate me the least. Super slick. Good stuff.

I had been using a similar priced premium brand for several years but wanted to try something different. After researching, this seemed well reviewed so tried. Have been pleased with the scent, and that it seems to last longer in the day. The first tub lasted about five months, and I just reordered another one to replace it. I have not tried the others in the line, but the soap quality if pretty good.

Truefitt & Hill is a gentleman's grooming company established in 1805. To commemorate Lord Nelson's victory in battle Truefitt & Hill named one of their top fragrances for this occasion. This being Trafalgar.I mainly use the replacement soap that Truefitt & Hill sell for my wooden soap bowl I bought from them; however, when traveling this makes it rather awkward.Truefitt & Hill knows men are on the go, but still enjoy a great shave, so have created these wonderful soap jars to take with you on travel.As with the brick soap, these soap jars last a very long time; as you only need a small amount for a good thick lather, with a distinguishing scent that is rather haunting, and not overly strong. One jar of Truefitt & Hill shave soap, much like the brick soap by Truefitt & Hill lasts about as long as approx 8 or so aerosol cans of shave cream. I can judge this as my roommate uses aerosol shaving cream. Plus aerosol cans use a numbing agent which harm the skin later throughout the day unlike brick or jar soap by Truefitt & Hill. So its actually cheaper, smells better, better quality shave, and lasts longer.I prefer the Truefitt & Hill Trafalgar scent, however, all the scents by Truefitt & Hill are very good. It is just a matter of taste and preference of what one enjoyes.Trafalgar is a subtle, haunting rich scent of sandlewood, lavender,jasmine and other spices; blended nicely to be very appealing, but not over powering. Basically, just authorative and confident. One can honestly see why Truefitt & Hill named this fragrance after the Battle that Lord Nelson led England into victory.Also note, with the jar creams by Truefitt & Hill a shave brush is not needed although I still use mine when I need to travel and take my jar with me. You can easily use your finger tips, about the size of a US quarter 'or less' to massage on the face usually does the trick. With a true 'real quality' shave soap you don't need much, nor a huge lather either.The shave will make you almost become impatient for the next day as so you can shave again. The day is long and hard on every man, so why not give yourself something to start the day off with right? Something that also has a long history behind it as well.A last piece of information: I always purchase my Truefitt & Hill through [...] from The Grooming Lounge and will remain doing so. As I find The Grooming Lounge to be very fast with deliveries, plus packaging is beyond words by them. A good shaving is priceless; but a great seller who takes care of your shaving needs is also just as priceless. Please check out The Grooming Lounge here on amazon.com to see a huge selection of other quality grooming needs, including their selection of other Truefitt & Hill products.Enjoy!

Update again just ordered again this is the best and can't be beaten.Update just ordered this for the 4th time.The main reason for purchasing and trying TrueFitt & Hill 200ml Authentic Finest Shaving Cream is the fact that it is Free of parabens, alcohol and sulphate.What are Parabens,These chemicals (which include methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben and isobutylparaben, among others) may harm human health by contributing to the development of cancerous tumours.what is Sulphates,Sulfate compounds (commonly called sulfates) are found in many personal care products such as shampoo, toothpaste, shaving foam, body washes and facial cleansers. In cleansers, they function as surfactants: water- and oil-soluble compounds that, when combined with water, foam and emulsify greasy substances.‘Sulfates are synthetic ingredients partially based on sulfur, which is derived from petrolatum or other sources,. However, sulfates are not just petrolatum-derived. The largest part of the molecule comes from lauryl alcohol, which is derived from coconut oil or other plants. To make sulfates, lauryl alcohol is reacted with sulfuric acid. Sulfur can be found naturally on earth, but for manufacturing it’s generally produced using petrolatum.The TrueFitt & Hill 200ml Authentic Finest Shaving Cream lathers up into a smooth cream lather giving you a very smooth shave with a DE RAZOR, the cent is a bit to mild for me but that's personal preference it certainly helps if you suffer razor burn as I do on my neck so I use a pre-shave oil as well and then finish off with aloe vera which gives a nice cooling effect.I do recommend this if you haven't tried it please try you won't be dissapointed, I just wish it was a pound or two cheaper as I shave every day so doesn't last long enough.Please click on the “Yes” button below if this review has been helpful thank you.

I took a punt on this having read the reviews. Compared to the shaving cream I was using this was quite expensive and I was initially a bit sceptical about whether it would be worth the cost. Well, my worried were groundless. Not only does it give me a fantastic suddsy froth to shave with but, because I only need to use the teensiest dab on the end of my shaving brush, I reckon the one tub I have will last me months if not years. So guys, ditch your current shaving product and invest in a tub of TrueFitt & Hills Authentic No. 10 Shaving Cream and enjoy dozens and dozens of excellent smooth shaves. Thoroughly recommended.Update - Just finished today, in August 2020, the first tub I bought back in November 2018. I dont shave every day but even so this is great value for money and a lovely smooth shave every time.

If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. I don't review often but this product deserves it , being unbelievably good. Firstly, don't be put off by the price tag. If you use it economically and mix up only what you need for a shave, you will find it can last many, many months. It produces the most velvety smooth and light lather which transforms the shaving experience for me; my Merkur razor just glides over the skin with this, it's such a pleasure to use. And being fragrance free, it won't clash with whatever after shave or eau de toilette you might like to use afterwards. Simply superb.

This company makes a variety of shaving creams and lotions, all them appear to be a bit above the norm where quality is concerned. I already use the 1805 formula, a superior product over the canned stuff. This one is just as good with a lighter more whipped feel, it goes on the face and softens up the skin slightly faster and makes shaving a glide, coupled with Gillette proglide and a decent handle the shaving ritual is a bit less of a chore in the morning, pricey at £17 a tub, yes it is, but we all only have one face (most of us) so you might as well treat it. Go treat yourself and shell out for some, makes you feel like you've had a professional shave.P/S once finished the tub is sturdy enough to be used as a man tin for those small items you know you'll need soon.

Looked forward to trying out a shaving soap from a reputable and well established company. Great smell, lathers up great. Unfortunately, in my case, it led to a trip to the doctor as my face broke out in a really bad rash - to the degree that I'm now on steroid treatment. I've never had any skin problems as a youth or adult, so I was really surprised. I don't use any other pre or post shave product anymore so the only cause seems to be the shaving soap. Had absolutely no problem with other brands. I'm sure there are plenty of positive reviews but as for me I'll have to revert to my previous brands. Pity, I really liked it.
