    It should probably be in every Den for quality, value, lather, and I like the scent. Although, in another forum someone described the scent as a likeness to the pucks in the men's urinal:happy097

    OK, so far, only 2 products come remotely close to smelling like a men's urinal, in my opinion....1: The Veg. 2: Classic Shaving.com LIME scented shave soap. That's all.....I like Tabac, I have no real beef w. VDH or WIlliams, so ARKO shouldn't be a disappointment at all....lol:cool:

    Arko products are very nice but especially i like very much extra sensitive lavender in the winter and Citrus in the summer..

    Great lather/performance and not-so-good scent is my opinion. But that is specifically because I don't care for citronella. If you like citronella candles, you NEED to try the Arko stick as nothing at a comparable price shaves nearly as well IMHO.

    +1 on everything my friend Jeff says here...The Sticks are my fav..and if I go for Uber-lather, I use Arko Shave Stick + Arko Shave Cream and face lather....After using the stick adding the cream is over-kill, but fun non-the-less...:)

    Bingo! That about nails it on the head for me.

    The citronella scent is fine in skeeter be gone candles, but I don't want it in my shave soap, however the Arko stick performs so well that I will occasionally put up with it.

    The scent is why I won't use Williams, either.
