The scent of Williams

Does the soap smell like the repel bug candles to anyone else?

 

Yep

 

Or a way over-powered Irish spring. But I found it locally!
That's the most I can ask for. Does it lather well?

 

We had a Williams Theme Week a while back.
That's all I'm gonna say

 

It smells like a bug candle to me also. As far as lathering, it can be very difficult for some people.

 

You've let me down. I was expecting a little more of a comment from you.....lol

 

Too lazy to drag out my proverbial soap box

 

Id like to hear it please

 

Oh boy!

 

Just read the thread. We've had many of them, but the last one should do it.

 

Aelfred, I used Williams for several decades only because it was what I started with and I was totally ignorant to all the products out there. Joining this forum opened my eyes to a whole new world of good products and now I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. But please don't let any of us sway you from trying or using it. You may love it. There are many people here that use it all the time and really like it.

 

Thanks. Saved me a whole lotta typing.

 

This is spot on. I still love VDH Luxury, but there are so many other options. I can lather Williams like a fool, and plan on using it this summer to see if it WILL keep mosquitos off.. spend a summer in Mississippi and you'll understand my sorrow. This is the only way I'll use it. IF that works. That's a big if.

 

It's one of my favorites, just used it this morning. Here are some threads that discuss the scent and performance of Williams:

Would that be a Williams soap box?

 

Yeah... What's the link to lathering it? I couldn't lather it AT ALL. I was really dissapointed

 

Another sad thing is my wife just whipped up a good lather lol. First time EVER using a brush and mug

 

Depends on your water with Williams. Experiment. Williams is cheap

 

Heck yeah 1.35 a puck

 

Ralph's Grocery carries it for $.93 a puck.
Smells like Ivory soap. kind tastes that way also.{don't ask how I know that, }
