Soap/cream of the day

Today I used Taylor of Old Bond Street Lemon & Lime cream. Ever since I bought the tub I wasn't overly happy with it as opposed to my many other tubs of TOBS creams. I wasn't crazy about the scent which seems too chemically to me. And I haven't been too happy with performance either. It always seems lighter on the lather than its brethren and doesn't seen to be as slick. Today I used a little more product than I normally do as I've made up my mind to finish the tub and not replace it. Wouldn't you know it, I've realized that my issue is not with the soap but my stinginess in how much product I've been using. Today I ended up with a nice rich, creamy, lather with soft peaks and a nice sheen to it. And post shave feel is still feeling moisturized at almost 11PM. I probably still won't replace it due to the scent but I may not be so quick to just finish it for the sake of finishing it.
 
CBL - Sandalwood, Jasmine, Leather, Cedar, and Rose...I need to come up with a name for this. Maybe Rugged Bouquet...or Cowboy Bouquet?
