    Too many---maybe! I'm afraid my calculator will over heat. I think I may be able to count the stacks though.

    Looks like I have more than my trusty Cella now. I've ordered Valobra Almond and going to be having some Vitos Red coming along as well.

    So, I'll have a total of 3 soaps. By far the most I've had in my den. :)

    Soaps? Maybe 12?
    Creams? Maybe 8?

    I have pared down the software a lot. Now if I could just PIF after shaves without going broke on postage.

    Far too many to list. Would be inbarassed as heck, and people would either think I have a problem, or they would be jealous lol.

    It's good to have variety and share the wealth whenever possible.

    How does he like his lavender? That's the fragrance of my new Block Soap, by the way.

    He likes it a lot. That's the only scent he asks me to make for his soap.

    Well, that's interesting....lavender can be appreciated by women AND men, I'm learning.

    It is very nice. The scent really comes out as you're building lather and stays all shave long. It's also very slick.

    I will be getting a second soap from them-but there sure is a lot to go in the first yet.

    How many soaps do I need? One.
    So how many soaps do I have? One.

    I figure that I won't get a really good idea of how well soaps work if I rotate them around like a lazy susan, so uno at a time it is.

    I have 4 now! The most I've ever had! :eek:

    - Cella
    - Valobra Almond
    - Vitos Red (on the way)
    - Barrister and Mann Latha Unscented (just got it today and trying out tonight.)

    I should be set for a year or two with all these. :D

    It varies over time, but right now it is the Van see Hagen Scented Luxury Shave Soap. It is the only Van der Hagen shaving soap that the stores in my area carry now. The Van der Hagen Deluxe shaving soap disappeared not long after the company was sold to Universal Beauty Products.

    I have tried a lot of shaving soaps, but do so sequentially. It avoids mess and clutter, and minimizes the storage space required. It also allows a soap's performance to be evaluated over an extended, uninterrupted period of time. Additionally, it makes the next soap's characteristics stand out all the more.

    I never could wrap my mind around large hoards and rotations. If I wanted to try a lot of soaps in a short period of time, that is what samples are for.

    I really enjoy variety, and I love a LOT of different scent profiles. I'm sure I have too many, but I couldn't imagine having less than 7-10 soaps (I have far more, however). I would be incredibly bored.
