I second the Castle Forbes plug, though they only have 2 scents Lime and Lavender.

My favorite scent is Taylor's Shaving Shop though.

There are several creams I wouldn't want to be without, such as Trumper's Violet, Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet, and Coate's Lime.

But if I had to choose a favorite scent, it would be Taylor's Rose.

Cream: Trumper's Rose
Trumper's Coconut oil
C and E almond, in that order

Soap: Trumper's violet

Mentioned a few times, and it's the one that got me started.... Trumpers Violet Cream.
2 would have to be Taylors Sandalwood and 3... the UK bodyshop cream.

Hates.... gotta put these in and I'll be interested in any comments:
Kiehls - any of their shave creams, Zirh shave cream; both are like facial cold cream and philosophy the common man (has a local anaesthetic in it and just makes my face feel strange!!)

I like em all,
But to narrow it down;

Soap = Col. Conk Amber

Cream = The soon extinct Charles Tyrwhitt Lemon & Ceder
and Taylor's Barber Shop followed closely by Almond

Coates Lavender! (And I'm waiting not-so-patiently for it to be available again)

Since we're talking just about scent here, and not lather, I have to say Burt's Bees Bay Rum. This is exactly what Bay Rum is supposed to smell like.

Of course I really like the smell of SCS New Spice, and it lathers a whole lot better than Burt's Bees.

My favorite scents are not necessarily the products that work the best which bugs me sometimes. Since this is all about fragrance and not efficacy here they are;

1.) Burma Shave soap
2.) Musgo Real cream
3.) Taylor's Eaton College cream
