I will always buy cella

I have a lot of different soaps, but one permanent feature in my bathroom is cella. This was pot number 5, it’s a great soap.

Quality with great scent

Lovely marzipan smell but not long lasting. First time I used it was a little disappointed as the lather dissipated quickly. Rectified by applying more of it to the brush on subsequent shaves. To be fair I was using a new brush which may have something to do with it.
Whips up into a nice creamy lather providing a quality slick shave using an old Gillette double edged razor...recommended.

Almond joy

If you think paying nearly 10 quid is to much for shaving soap then you haven't tried this awesome stuff....its no wonder that Cella have been selling this beautiful soap since 1899...for its price it is an absolute bargain and the rich lather it produces is up there with the likes of Geo F Trumper or Taylors of old bond Street...the beautiful smell of almonds just makes you want to eat it (not a good idea obviously)...treat yourself it's worth every penny and more and your wife or husband will love that you smell like a bakewell tart after a shave.Read full review

Great soap at a great price.

A good shaving soap that's easy to get a good, rich lather from. I face lather and with a good brush you can get a good brush full for a three pass shave without any problems. A great soap that smells nice ( not too strong ), is easy to use and at a very good price. Read full review

Great packaging and great price

You'll be hard pressed to find better looking packaging for your Mr Retro. It smells pretty old school pleasant, like a music teacher you had a crush on in the 80s. Smashing gift to go with the razor set I bought someone for Christmas. He is likely to tear half his face off but he'll smell good and that tin will look great in the bathroom.Read full review

A Cherry Almond fragranced shaving soap wonder....

- it is very strong in from the tub (If you like cherry bakewells this is the product for you) once you mix up a lather it is very pleasant The slickness of the soap is excellent and I've been able to get multiple pass, very close shaves without any irritation and it left my skin feeling great. All in all, another great Italian shaving Soap at a very reasonable price!Read full review

Old Fashion Almond Barber Scent - Lovely

This shaving soap is almost a halfway house between soap and cream. It comes in a very solid screw top plastic jar, and whips up very easily in to a smooth creamy lather.
It has a subtle almond soapy scent, which I would associate with an old fashion barber. I shall be buying this again, but taking advantage of the 1 Kg pack value for money.Read full review

Try it, you will love it.

It smells lovely. Good enough to eat, but it's soap so you wouldn't want to do that. It lathers up very well and I have had a great shave every time I have used it. So much better than using the soap in can.Read full review

Classic shaving soap

Excellent lather for a very smooth shave. Almond marzipan scent is very sweet. Allow to air dry thoroughly after use as storing the soap wet can cause it to go off.
