Do users agree that the creams from Trumpers ,Taylor's, D R Harris and Truefitt and Hill are all basically the same except for differences in smell-surely each place gets the cream from some central source and just has it put into the plastic jar with their own details on the lid..I've never noted any difference.I'm very attached to Trumpers almond for sentimental reasons however.

I'm all for sentiment too, so I use Coates. (as did my grandfather and father)
A few years ago, Departures magazine (a magazine for Platinum American Express users) did a piece on English saving creams and tried all of the above and more and the winner was Coates, because they said, it whipped up with more volume than the others. But it also said that the others were still very good.
I don't think you can go wrong with your favorite.
