Description
Proraso has been a best seller in Italy for decades.  We've been stocking it at West Coast Shaving for years and it has sold just as well for us across the pond.  This is the new formulation, however it still contains coconut oil, eucalyptus and menthol, the winning combination so beloved.

From all reports and our own investigation, Proraso has winner with this reformulation.  Gone is the slightly medicinal scent some found in the previous version.  The menthol cooling affect everyone loves is still there.  And best yet, it's even slicker than before, which was already a great performer.  Some fear reformulations, but this one should be celebrated.

Size: 150ml tube

Made in Italy

Smells like Hospital Soap
I've been a huge fan of Proraso, but I hate this new formula. It smells like the medicated hand soaps at the hospital. I prefer the C.G. Bigelow one. You can smell the Eucalyptus much better in that one. Very disappointed in this product. I do however get a decent shave with it.

Pretty good
First off, I agree with Kevin, it definitely has a distinct odor to it. Though I don't consider it bad, it's oddly nostalgic for me, the smell of grown up men who shaved. It isn't the menthol or the eucalyptus, it's something ... else. As for latherability, it whips up really quick and in great quantity. It gave me a very nice smooth shave, with plenty of cushion and comfort.

First time wetshaver, red vs green
For my first experiences wet shaving I picked up both the red and the green proraso creams. Of the two, the green is the least forgiving and hardest to work with as a beginner. I definitely get a smoother shave with less irritation with the red. After a week I think I'm figuring out what to do to get a good lather from the green, but I'm preferring the red. Red smells better too.

Terrific, But...
I have to agree with Kevin from Texas here. This is far and away the best step up from the junk we used to buy at Wal-Mart, etc. BUT, I have used the older formula (still sold as "C. O. Bigelow" at Bath & Body Works) and it is noticably a better product. You can't really go wrong with either just the COB is All That And A Bag Of Chips, too..! Used with the Pre-shave Balm and you have a great combination. Buy with confidence.

the new Proraso
I was in Floremce om Sept; couldn't find any Proraso in city of manufacture. They said they hadn't had it for some months. Coming home I found out why, new formulation. I find the new just as good, maybe better, a bit more liquid, needs less water to mix. Lathers well, feels good, first class shave. Paul MR
