Love the Tabac. It and MWF are serious contenders against any of the big 3 "T's", DR Harris, etc. Great stuffs. As other have said, it's all about layering the Tabac with the soap, A/S splash, Cologne, Deodorant, etc.
Yes, the Tabac Shave Soap is good stuff. The scent is a big plus :drool If only Mauer+Wirtz still made the Dalli-Werke shaving stick
Yes! Tabac is the best soap I have tried (so far). I was hesitant to purchase it because of what people said about the scent, but I like the scent and it does not irritate my skin at all. It produces a rich creamy lather and does not leave my face dry like many other soaps do. I guess tallow-based soaps are for me!
Indeed you do. Get the aftershave splash while you're at it. Tabac shave soap and a/s are simply some of the best shaving products out there. Jordan
you can only win with Tabac soap! Joe, as I meant to tell you, the Dalli sticks were da BOMB, but like so many other good shaving things, the companies found them to be non-money makers.
I have to say, I've done a complete 180 on Tabac -- I really, really hated it (though I liked the scent) until 2 weeks ago when I decided to try it again. I've been using it now for 2 weeks straight and am impressed with the slickness and the close shave. Previously I had problems with it drying out and making too thin a lather, but now its just great. Go figure...
Hello, I am relatively new to DE shaving. I purchased a blade sampler pack to get me started. After reading this thread, it made me want to ask: is there a place that sells soap sampler packs? Seems like a good idea to me! Jim
I know you can get a sample pack of shaving goodies from Trumpers. Our store here has great samples of soap for like 2 bucks a pop. They are pretty good sized samples too.
I don't know about sampler packs, but the TSD Store sells samples of both soaps and creams. EXCELLENT stuff! Link here (or in my sig block. )
Thanks for the tip. I visited the site and found samples of soaps. I passed a tip on to my kid for the upcoming manly holiday of Father's Day! Jim
I have Zinc gel, Body Shop cream and Gillette goo-in-a-can (hate that but got it free) but my Tabac stick is the very best.
