Eddie,

How's the Euro cream different to the U.S. stuff? I know the packaging is different but what else?

I regularly use the Euro Parlmolive (by far the most popular brand in the UK) and it is an excellent cream & great value. It lathers as good as Taylors etc at about a third of the price.

Regards
John

This is only my honest opinion, because many guys may disagree. The European Palmolive Classic has a much nicer scent than the discontinued US version. It also has a richer lather which is easier to build. I was also noticing that the US Palmolive would occasionally leave my skin feeling a bit irritated or dry, but the European version left it feeling very well moisturized and protected against irritation.

+1....now in the USA when you find it it's imported from India and IMO is not as good as the Euro version. YMMV and all that.

There are Palmolive creams even from Egypt--they don't smell so nice, but they perform fantastically.
