    I'll go with C&S Oxford and Cambridge but find a couple of Mystic Water scents almost addicting (Green Fairy & Lemongrass and Blue Gum). I haven't tried the new formula of Lemongrass and Blue Gum menthol, however.

    I honestly believe mystic waters has the best scents of any soap brand.

    But they can be hard to lather.

    Perry, your two favorite Fines are my favorite Fines. Having said that, I haven't yet tried either, but just by description, those would be my two.

    I like Wickham's Club Cola. That's the most "original " I have. By that I mean it is very different from anything else I have. A bit like ginger ale.
    Tabacco Verde by Tcheon Fung Sing is very nice too. I have about twenty soaps/creams and those two are at the top of the list with respect to scent.

    Stirling Black Cherry my favorite. I also really like the smell of "Arlington". Although not as slick as I like I still use it for my Sunday shave.

    I do believe it has been discontinued for quite a while. Quite rare to find one for sale.

    It's been discontinued since the late 1990's. Any pucks left are few and far between.
