    what other vintage soaps do y'all like??

    I've tried several and really like Seaforth and Renleigh. But I really really like Colgate Cup Soap.

    Maybe there are some out there that we've not heard about so share those thoughts.

    My experience with vintage shave soaps is limited to Williams and Colgate (both winners IMO), but I'd love to try some other vintage varieties as I can find them. I do hear good things about Seaforth, also Yardley.

    I have a couple pucks of vintage Old Spice that have held their scent very well. I also have a puck of Colgate Barber's soap that is almost scentless. To that I add s couple drops of Em's Woodstock EO to the lather bowl. Both soaps lather up pretty good; I have no issues with either.

    Williams from several eras, my favorite
    Colgate cup and mug, I like them both
    Rawleigh, great stuff that was sold by traveling salesmen
    Seaforth, one of the best ever
    Old Spice, outstanding
    Barbershop made by Franklin Toiletries, very, very good

    I love collecting and using vintage soaps!

    I have 3 vintage Williams
    Barber's Bar
    Tonsorial
    Mug from the 90's
    And vintage Yardley
    I have not used the Williams Mug from the 90's yet but the other three are all great lathering and give excellent shaves
