I read here that Proraso is sort of revered in some way. I don't get it. Seriously, I do not understand its popularity. I have now tried Proraso green, blue, and red shaving creams. I also have Proraso green pre-shave.
I like the scent of the pre-shave because it wake you up but I also have some Trumpers skin food that absolutely destroys the Proraso stuff. Its not even close in terms of performance.
For the Shaving creams, technically all Proraso creams are about the same. I'm not going to get into scent because that's personal. You like what you like. But technically I found them not slick and drying. Compared against the many other creams I have tried, they are simply subpar.
Today I used both the Proraso Blue and GFT Spanish Leather. The Spanish Leather is so superior (in technical performance) it is simply in another league, nm other soaps that are so much better.
Now I get the YMMV bit. So whats the story with Proraso? Why is it popular? Is its popularity simply because its cheap? Since CO Bigelow is supposed to be a clone, is sold in local chain stores that regularly have buy 2 get one free "sales" (I don't consider these sales since you can routinely find these prices), basically they give Proraso away free.
So is that it? Its because its about free, or very cheap, that its popular? Or do some people truly find Proraso shaving creams superior in technical performance over other creams like T&H, GFT, XPEC, etc.?
Inquiring minds want to know.
