My first go with musgo

[sparky5693]

I really regret not trying this cream sooner. It's the most lubricating cream i've used yet, and really gave a great shave. Nearly impossible to get razor hop with this one. Great scent.

How hard did you try? :rofl

Definetly a great scent. It's been awhile since I tried the cream, can't really remember how well it worked.

Glad you are enjoying it though.

Musgo Real is one of my top three -- not only for the shaving cream, but for their entire line of grooming products.

[sparky5693]

The scent is just really nice too.

[Mottern Man]

That dose it, Ima getting some. :D

Whenever I use this one, I am reminded how much I enjoy its scent and slickness yet it does not get alot of play in my rotation. I think I have to change that. It is an excellent cream.

Yep.
Its grrrrrrrrrrr-eat !
Relatively Cheap, too.

I agree and the best is, the combination of the MR shaving cream and the MR after shave splash works very well for me.
My skin feels smooth and very well groomed after using...;)

[sparky5693]

Agreed, this has to be the most moisturizing splash i've ever tried, and man the scent :drool

I always hear proraso being pushed for a high end cheap cream (and it is very good), but this stuff blows it completely out of the water. Dollar for dollar it may be the best cream i've used.

after reading this thread last night I did use the Musgo a/s this morning. Great stuff.

[MaduroMan_wcp]

does the a/s and cream smell the same?

[crackstar]

Musgo cream is a delight, I should definitely use it on a more regular basis.

[Michael]

does the a/s and cream smell the same?

No!! Wish they did. I love the scent of the splash (though I don't care for the sticky feeling it leaves). The scent of the cream, while pleasant and I do like it, is nothing like that of the splash - not to me anyway. Different scent and nowhere near as potent.

And not to rain on anyone's parade, but I have yet to get a good shave with MR cream. I've tried only a few times because it doesn't seem to work well for me. I'm not giving up though.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

EDIT: Okay, so I'm not sticking to it. After writing these comments, I decided to give MR another go this morning (I did say I wasn't giving up yet, now didn't I?). I haven't had much luck with either Musgo cream or Sharps blades, but decided to use both this morning and may have to reconsider. Very nice shave - and the scent is quite nice too, just not the same as the A/S.

I LOVE the scent of the Musgo cream. It's just really different, which is a big reason why I enjoy it. My shaves are unbelievably close when I use this stuff. Just an outstanding quality cream. I love that freshly-cut grassy scent that it offers ... very different but exciting in it's own way. It does leave me a little bit on the dry side I've noticed but no big deal.

Unfortunately, I've never been a big fan of the rest of the Musgo product line. I find the aftershave splash to be too strong for my tastes and I just can't get excited about their cologne splashes (#1, 2, 3). Just not my thing, I guess. To each their own.

What I really want to try is their soap on a rope! Does it smell like the shave cream?

[Leon]

I love Musgo Real shaving cream. I use it many times.
I think it's tied with Proraso shaving cream as my top cream to use. I can't decide which of those two I like better.

[crackstar]

I also noticed a trace of menthol in the Musgo cream, not strong enough to make you shiver, but, still it seems there.

+1 On this. I may be newish to wetshaving but I have o say I lucked out finding out about this stuff so soon. Not only does the cream work great, but the smell of the cream, aftershave balm, and aftershave splash are all terrific. Even if I move on to "bigger and better" things, I am sure I will be keeping some MR stuff around. . .

Oh, Musgo Real is part of "bigger and better"! :happy088

[ColbyPants]

Honestly, I am coming around to that opinion. I feel like a million bucks and I dint have to spend such money. Seems I really did start out on the right foot.
