    Silly question here but was there a coincidence between Stoylin's HaverFORD and Tom FORD(I mean is that why @ezlovan called Haverford just that?)

    Lol good observation Paul! Not sure but it would make sense. The likeness between Stirling Haverford and the RR Tuscan Oud A/S are nearly identical while the Tuscan Oud soap smells completely different, and is amazing scent. May have to check out a few samples of the real Tom Ford stuff to compaire.

    Another RR What the Puck blue shave this morning.

    I think I may have gotten my best shave with it so far. Bloomed the Puck. While I took a shower. My Semougue OC SE made some really good lather. Did a 3 pass shave with no touch up's needed.

    Really like this soap. Get great shaves with it. Being a milled soap it's gonna last a while.

    I think it's a really good value for quality to price.

    Was on an extended trip to Minnesota late July-mid August and brought along my trusty tub of RR Essential Oil of Lime soap for all of my shaves.

    For me, it's THE perfect travel soap. It always face-lathers great and gives me great shaves...with every brush and every razor...even with ultra-hard and often ice-cold water at campsites and motels/hotels. And, that lime fragrance is so clean and refreshing. What's not to like?

    Does anyone use Razorock P.160 shaving soap? I've heard good things about it and tempted to try it. Can anyone share impressions?
