I have the Ultimate Comfort cream (like it a lot, not as thick as traditional English creams), the oil (so-so, very expensive), the aftershave balm (awesome, best I've tried), and their West Indian Limes cream from their older traditional line, which is great and has a nice scent.

I use some of their colognes -- Spanish Leather, Trafalgar and 1805, as well as their Skin Control Daily Facial Cleanser, their West Indian Limes aftershave balm, their Almond Shaving Cream, the 1805 and Limes shaving soaps, etc. etc. etc. and I love all their products.

My favorite cologne is the Spanish Leather. Great products - highly recommended!

Great stuff, all of it. I only wish, much like with all the great shaving/cologne houses of old, it wasn't god awful expensive.

Their Sweet Almond shaving cream, used with a good badger brush gives a great, smooth shave. Highly recommend it!

I think prorasso is better and is much much cheaper.
I just got a whole sample kit, with a 15% off all online purchases today from them.
Its easy, send them an e-mail (in the U.S.) and they will send you shaving cream samples, and samples of all their colognes!
Tried the shaving products today, nice, but not as nice as my super menthol Porasso.

Can't say I care for T&H. Trumper and Taylor are both superior IMO.

Sorry, not a fan of T&H.

For soaps my go-to are:
Prep,
Proraso,
TGQ,
Pre de Provence,
eshave,
Provence Sante
L'Occitane cade

For creams:
Salter's
C&E
WARS
AOS

Just MHO, though. T&H certainly has its fans.

I remember some shaving gurus on some other boards were really hating on Art of Shaving stuff saying it was just market mall brand BS. It seems like their opinions have changed over the past year or so.

I was given a tub of the lavender cream that works with or without a brush for XMAS and I enjoyed it and yielded some rather nice shaves.

I still feel this way. Detest that place.

I use several T&H products. 1805 and Clubman cologne, creams/soaps and the CAR cream (before I shaved off all my hair, he heh). The creams are excellent. I have used both Trumper and Taylor products as well and I really find most products by all three of them to be comparable. I use Rose cream by Taylor, and it's great, Almond cream by T&H, and it's great, and Sandalwood soap by Trumper......great too. Only difference is the prices. Taylor is the most reasonable, Trumper is the highest. If you don't have access to Taylor, T&H is well worth the price anyway.

I like pretty much all of T&H's colognes, though I don't really get much 'staying power' out of the two I have. Then again, they are meant to be light, summer-y scents.
