Castle Forbes Shaving Cream Sampler

Castle Forbes Shave Cream Sampler

Great idea. Wish samples were available for EVERYTHING! I've been using Castle Forbes Lime for a long time, and decided to check out their other offerings. Sticking with the Lime (my favorite) but they all smelled pretty good. The fast shipping is awesome!

Castle & Forbes samples

Castle & Forbes has one of the richest scents of all the shave creams I have ever tried. The 1445 is my absolute favorite but I was interested in trying/smelling the others. The sample pack from Shave Nation is perfect! I wish there were other companies with large offerings that I could try out samples before I buy.

Informative

I am giving the sample pack as a product a 5-star because it did exactly what I needed it to do. I have wanted to try Castle Forbes for a while, particularly 1445 because it sounded intriguing, but at around $100 for the cream and aftershave, I wanted to smell it first. With the sample pack I learned a few things: 1) I do like Castle Forbes as a shaving cream 2) I do NOT like 1445. Think walking into a grandmas bathroom in the 80’s with the toilet seat cover and pink Formica sinks with brass hardware. Very Floral/Soapy. It’s fresh, but extremely floral. 3) I really liked the Lavender surprisingly. I figured I would not, but it has a masculine almost woody/cedar scent to it which I found interesting. 4) sandalwood/cedarwood smells good, but could be overbearing to some around you. 5) lime is awesome! I’d pay for a full set of that stuff. So the sample pack really helped, saved me some future heartburn, and found what I really do like from CF.
