Jerry, Nice photo, as usual. Forget about Lee, he has no Coate's at present. Knox may still have a little Lime and/or Tea Tree, but it's old and somewhat dehydrated. Getting tubes from Colonial is really the better bet. Coate's is not like Taylors, the cream in their tubes is consistant in texture....

This question pops up from time to time.

Regardless of how long they let the tubs settle.......I think 5.3oz is a constant. I'm not at home to look at it but I think that is the right weight.

I'll second the lavender by Coates - that one is my favorite lavender as well. Coates sandalwood cream is excellent, but the scent is very subdued compared to other sandalwood creams I've tried. I have a pot of this and it is my favorite sandalwood cream. In my opinion, the sandalwood and lavender a...

If you want intensity, go with Castle Forbes. If you want subtlety, go with Trumper's.

But regardless of Taylor's density, it is plain to me that CT is a very light cream. Give it a little poke--you'll see. It's not even close . I'll take Taylor of Old Bond Street out of the equation and say that CT has a lighter and more whipped feel than also Trumper, D.R. Harris, C&E, etc., et...
