I have been using The Art Of Shaving for the last couple of years and have been very happy with it, but found that my old favorite of many years; which I thought had gone out of busness, was still around, Coates and I just love their products, especially the Rose Shave Cream. So I am using them again.NAV wrote:Art of Shaving (Lavender and Sandalwood) and Trumpers (Rose and Violet) are my favourite shaving creams.
I think I am partial to it, in one sense because it was a family tradition( of wet shaving) going back to my Edwardian Grandfather using it and my father also. I find myself in so many things, today, going back to and using , products that still have the quality, style and tradition of years gone bye.
As my grandfather use to say, it's the quality of the product that guarantees the name, not the name that guarantees the product.
Call me old fashion, call me out of date, call me not hip or in, but that does not bother me, for give me quality,and tradition and I'm a happy man.
Of course, I am the kind of person who always had to dress for breakfast ( tie and coat) and have always loved doing so, even to today.
