Cella Milano Classic Almond Shave Cream/Soap with Tallow, 150 gm, Made in Italy, A favorite of European Barbershops for 125 Years

Buy this once to try it and if you like it then go find the 1000ml block here and buy that as its 12 refills of this size container. About a tablespoon of water in my bowl swirl the brush around and you will have a thick lather that you wont get from most brands I have tried. You can make this as thick as you want squeeze it out of your brush and make some more , as much and as thick as you want. It doesnt disappear or fall off.My favorite soap is henry cavindish but is very expensive and this lathers a little better. No other brand I have tried lathers like this. Here is a list in order of lather that i have tried best to worst1) Cella Milano2) Henry Cavindish3) Sir Henrys4) Poraso5 ) GBS6) Col ConkScent is entirely individual taste but sir henry smelled like 1970's machine shop to me but it didnt bother me much. I was ok with all the scents I have used The Cavindish being my favorite although many people say they dont like it. Ciello Milano has a "almond" scent which it does but there is another scent there and it reminds me of something in my childhood but I cant put my finger on it. I like it though.

Smells good, lathered up nicely. This is only my first time using it, but I haven't experienced any irritation and I have pretty sensitive skin. Also only did two passes.

I have sensitive skin, but I had read reviews that Cella was fine for sensitive skin, so I tried it and I love it! The scent is a mild almond cherry and is very pleasing. It doesn't make me sneeze or irritate my skin, which is always my problem with soaps. It is a soft cream/soap and it lathers exceptionally well. The foam is slick and protective, and it is tied for the best performing soap I have, along with Proraso white and Mitchell's Wool Fat. I've only used it for a week, so I don't know how long the puck will last, but since it's a croap I doubt it'll last as long as the hard soaps. Still, it's a fantastic shaving experience and well worth every penny. Right now it's my favorite shaving soap and I highly recommend it!Edit: I had assumed that since it was not a hard soap that it wouldn't last long, but I've had it for months and have barely made a dent in it. It's only been these past few weeks that I've been using it everyday though. Still, I've used it enough to say that it is a great buy for the money.

So far I’ve enjoyed using this shaving cream. I’ve posted a photo of the ingredient label for those with sensitive skin. I was disappointed that the product description stated tallow which is the second ingredient listed after coconut oil.

Affordable, great scent, good lather, and cleans out of your razor very well. Lathers very well in a bowl.

Top tier. Wish it had more smell, but it’s just fine. The lather though is top tier for the price. Couldn’t be better. Iv had better, but we are getting at $30… this is 90% of that in quality as a lather.

This shaving cream/soap is outstanding. Really lubricates my beard, facilitating a smooth shave. It also has a pleasant almond aroma.

I have used Cella in the past and I'm going to rate it 3 stars on THAT basis, but be aware that your mileage may vary based on water chemistry, humidity etc. At my old place it worked fine. At my present home, the water chemistry must be a bit different because the lather dries out FAST, and is not very slick.Cella's a classic, and the almond scent is nice enough, but the lather is unreliable for anything but a fast, single-pass shave.
