  • CELLA, Crema Sapone Extra Extra Purissima

    There is no better test of greatness than “standing the test of time” and Cella Crema Sapone passes with flying colours.  As far as I know, the formula for Cella is virtually unchanged since it's introduction in 1899.   In Italy, you will find many master barbers and experienced wet-shavers that consider Cella to be the greatest shaving soap ever produced and after personally usually Cella dozens of times, I certainly share the same opinion.

    Cella comes in two formats, a 150 ml screw-top red “Ciotola” (tub/bowl) and a 1000ml block in a red cardboard box.  Being a soft soap, pieces can easily be sliced off the block and molded into your favorite shaving bowl or mug.  For those that prefer convenience and travel often, the 150 ml Ciotola is the preferred choice.  Cella is scented of sweet almonds or marzipan.

    Cella is first-class in every regard... purest natural ingredients, shave performance, scent and presentation.  You will be hard-pressed to find a better shaving soap any where in the world, at any price!

    Note:  I've been told the 1000ml brick will provide over 2 years of daily shaving; A true value!

    Ingredients: Cocos Nucifera Oil, Tallow, Stearic Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Sodium Hydroxide, Aqua, Potassium Carbonate, Parfum.

    A True Classic

    I have shaved with Cella on and off for over 10 years and keep going back to it as a benchmark of quality. Are there better soaps out there? Yes! But, after trying many different soaps over the years I can't really say that I have used a soap that is significantly better, especially when you consider the price of many of the "TOP TIER" offerings.
    Pound for pound there is not a better option out there.
    At the moment Cella is the only soap in my rotation. I believe that speaks for itself.

    Best of the BEST!

    I switched to wet shaving 5 years ago after 50-odd years of an electric razor. I've tried many different soaps and by far I prefer tallow-based, and Italian Barber are the best (and best value/price!) But after all that experimenting (and money!) I keep coming back to Cello. It's creamy. It lathers wonderfully. It's cushioning. It smells great! And it's cheap! I love this stuff! Even when I have a cabinet full of options, day after day, I reach for the Cello. It's a fantastic value! Why mess around, spend (waste) money? I bought this big block, keep it in the salad crisper of my frig, and cut off a chunk when I need it. By far, the best product and solution I've found! Highly recommend.

    The best in my book.

    Great performance for the money. Smells great if you like almond and has never let me down. If I had to pick just one shave soap. It would Cella Extra Extra in the 1000ml block.

    Excellent Cream Shave Soap! Weight Listed is Mis-leading...

    This is a top quality shave cream soap.
    One caveat however, the box weight or measurement of amount states:
    1000 ml. NOT 1000 g.! Only on the Italian Barber website does the box photo state "1000 g." One the CELLA website and on AMAZON the box quantity is stated as 1000 ml.
    Milliliters is a VOLUME measurement, not a weight measurement. Therefore, the weight will be lighter than 1000 grams as stated on the box on this website. Upon receipt of my order the box stated "1000 ml." NOT grams. The block of soap in its poly wrapper weighed 896 grams which is consistent with fats weighing less than water based on a milliliter measurement. Upon further research; on online fats calculator shows Beef Tallow weighing 866.4 grams for 1000 ml. of volume.
    Please correct the product's photo to correctly show proper measurement of "1000 ml. e" as shown on the box from the CELLA website: https://cellamilano.it/en/shaving-products/cream-soap

    New packaging was changed and now shows 1000ml. Website has been updated.

    5/5 Really good stuff

    Really impressed with the post-shave feel. Cheaper soaps usually don’t have the post shave feel like this does. My sensitive skin feels great. Impressed. The sweet almond scent is very mild and I don’t notice after I’m done shaving which is great when picking out aftershaves. Wife uses the same soap but has more leg area than I do face, this brick lasts and is cost effective.
