My review and impressions:
1. Packaging / size / appearance: Porcelain-type jar, 100 ml/3.40 fl.oz., comes in luxury cardboard/paper box.
2. Price / availability: Expensive, $60 (Lee Razors/Lafco) in the U.S., can be found in Europe at selected locations. Italian-made so the price must be cheaper in Italy.
3. Scent: No words really to describe how good this is, nothing like I've smelled before, try it and you'll never forget it. Above and beyond anything else I have in-house, all perfumes uncluded. Main scent element is pomegranate.
4. Razor burn / Cooling action: Good to very good.
5. Moisturizing properties: Very good, cream is quite thick though not leaving you with an 'oily' feeling. Very friendly to the skin, does tend to leave it a bit 'sticky' (especially if you apply too much) but nonetheless not oily at all. I have never used it as a pre-shave cream, so no comment here.
6. Quality / overall: Top-end high quality product, luxury item. Not for very warm climates (unless you intend to use it as pre-shave).

Summary - N_Architect's verdict:

2. Price / availability: 2/5
3. Scent: 5/5
4. Razor burn / Cooling action:: 3/5
5. Moisturizing properties: 4/5
6. Quality / overall: 4/5 - Highly recommended, weather conditions/location permitting and only if you can justify the admittedly high price tag.
