C.R. SALTER 4in1

I thought I would put four reviews into one on four of the best soaps I've tried, so far.....

WILD ROSE: I've commented on another post. Really great rose smell, reminds me of my Grand Mother, while shaving. A soft cream, producing a fine thick yogurt type lather, simply sublime.
FRENCH VETIVER: You either like it, or you don't. A creamy soap that lathers like there is no tomorrow! The scent, like old wicker stored in an attic, broom straw broom sweeping an old wood floor store room.
It's been about 30 minutes since I shaved and the French Vetiver is still there.
INDIAN SANDALWOOD: A soft soap,creamy as the others, great lather, slick as a whistle. The scent much milder.
SUBLIME CITRUS: Firmer than the others but still a soft cream same lather. The scent is citrus, mild last the shave and fades away.
Overall impression of CYRIL R. SALTER Luxury Shaving Creams. All thick, slick, easy latherers, just a dab will do. They are the "Real Deal" great product,for face lathering, IMHO......

Thanks for a useful and concise 4-in-one review.   It sounds like the French Vetiver may be to my liking.

I enjoy using the sandalwood, but the post shave leaves something to be desired.

In my experience, the Salter creams are great performers and a real value. The French Vetiver is a smoky, nuanced Vetiver and my favorite.

zipper, if you can, would you please post a picture of the ingredients in the French Vetiver?

You need to let the Vetiver air for a few hours and give it a stir.
The Vetiver essential oil/extract tends to create a gas that smells awful.
It also happens, to less extents, with Mike's vetiver.

When I first got my tub I thought  - YIKES!
Give it some airing, stir it, and you will have a fantastic cream over there.

Thanks for the suggestion....

Thank you Paul.

Love that French Vetiver.  Dirty and raw and oh so awesome.  Wife hates it but what does she know.  Her taste in men is horrible.
