Lavender cream options?

[Ids]

With so many brands having a lavender scented cream, from vulfix to TandH, what do our lavender lovers recommend, I fancy giving it a bash.

I like a lot of Portuguese shaving products and I have really wanted to try the Lavanda Ach. Brito

It's a bit on the pricey side and may be getting difficult to get over here, since they've pulled out of the UK market, but Art of Shaving lavender cream is really good. A fantastic pure lavender scent and one of the best creams I've tried.

One of the few remaining with decent stock levels at the mo for AoS

I really liked Truefitt's Ultimate Comfort for a lavender scent.

I am sure that this is supplied by the Portugal Online Shop, who are new Members on this site.

Got some Violet here fella if you want to save some kerching, its like lavender in colour but smells absolutely nothing like it if that helps.

Not up for Castle Forbes then? It's pricey but a little goes a very long way!

Strangely enough i find the scent slightly disturbing, in a sort of something bad must have happened when i was very young which involved violets. Still it hasn't affected my tip toeing through tulips.....

You've all overlooked the obvious, which is Taylors Lavender cream. Good cream, good lavender scent and reasonable cost.

Castle Forbes is another good one.

I went for the simple solution, emailed GFT, TandH, Taylors and Vulfix begging for samples, let's see how it goes............

I e mailed Taylors for samples a few days ago - they don't do them.

Thank you for your e-mail.

Although we have provided some samples in the past, these were individually made by hand, as we do not hold sample-size stocks of our products.

We regret that due to excessive demand for samples, and the time consuming nature of this process, we unfortunately at the present time can no longer provide samples.

Nevertheless, if at a point in the future we decide to produce sample sizes we will be pleased to inform you of any developments.

Lavanda is available from Shaveabuck http://shaveabuck.com/lavanda-shave-cream-p-373.html. I have never used it, but have used Musgo Real which is made by the same folks & its a good cream.

Does it matter what type of lavender that's used in the mix. French, English, Portuguese? Does the country of origin indicate the lavender type that's used in the mix?
Interesting thought, as we my like the soap or cream based on the type of lavender we grew up with?

I reckon MdC use only French Lavender.
