Lime creams?

[Randy]

If you buy the cream; yes. Lathers very well

Density of the lather?

 

[Dipesh]

I’m currently using T&H Lime. Really enjoying it. I’ve set myself a challenge a hell of a long time ago to use the whole tub exclusively from start to finish, not regretted it so far!

 

[Dr Watson]

Does it even lather properly this thing?

T&H make the best quality English cream!

Density of the lather?

That depends on how you prepare it. Too much water and its not dense.
The right amount of water and you have nice whipped cream

Thanks for the recommendations. Think I will go for the Simpson.

And, did you order something yet?

Today I ordered Simpson's Lime. Guess I'll know tomorrow what it's like.

For tourists?

All this chat on lime has forced me to buy Edwin jagger limes and pomegranate. Quite a few years since I've had it.

 

[Dr Watson]

For tourists?

Yes, kind of (I know you've been reading my old posts ) TOBS is tat for tourists and T&H is quality for tourists but a dapper English gent will only use Trumpers I'll have you know.

By sheer luck I met Sir Michael Palin in the Trumpers shop when I visited, I don't remember what he was buying but if I search my old posts I'll be able to remind myself

In all seriousness I recommended the T&H as the performance is stellar and it has the nicest fresh lime scent to my nose... But I'm not a fan of lime so take it with a pinch of salt.

Nice one. Although the scent is very light.
Ever tried Muhle's Sea Buckthorn?

Of course I'm reading them

Good to know James.

In the meantime I only have St (Yourself) of London Black - Pepper & Lime which is excellent.

I will do a shave tomorrow.

If I choose one T&H, for start will be the Ultimate Comfort.

Sea buckthorn I haven't tried. Now I'm off to Google the scent.

Ultimate comfort is a good cream but the scent extremely mild, seemed almost unscented to me.

Muhle sea buckthorn is a sweet citrus, probably as it contains orange.

Sea Buckthorn

 

[Dr Watson]

Sea Buckthorn

FYI it's called sea buckthorn as it contains sea buckthorn extract, the scent is actually derived from lime & orange fragrance oils.

I have both T&H West Indian Lime and Simpson Lime and to me, they are both identical.
