    I really want to try this one, I have the Sandalwood soap and really like it, I have the Nomad Balm and like the scent...Hmmmm :)

    C&E makes wonderful scents. Personally, I think the Nomad ASB and regular soap smell better than the shaving soap, but it is certainly a great product nonetheless.

    Thanks Yukio!!

    And what would be your #1 soap selection? Enquiring minds want to know :cool:

    Hmmm, my favourite brand is D.R. Harris, but if I had to choose one, it probably would be MWF, because its scent is faint and neutral. If I can’t have a great variety of scents, I’d rather have something that I won’t get tired of.

    Note that my opinion might change when I try Trumper’s rose shaving soap. Rose is something I can’t get tired of.

    Thanks Yukio!!,

    I just got the Trumpers Rose soap a couple weeks ago, nice lather but lacking in the scent dept....... to me anyway :(:(:(

    I wanted to get hit in the face with the roses :D


    YMMV :)

    seamus402 You don't mess with Big Slim

    If one and only one - it would have to be four different ones. But if it were really one I believe it would be C&E SAO. The next three would be TSD bay Rum, QED Vetiver and Big Jims (My own) Lavender, Rosemary Orange.

    It’s my turn to thank you. I had great expectations of Trumper’s rose soap based on the cream I have, but apparently it’s too faint.

    Some have better scents. Others make better lather. Still others are more moisturizing. But the best overall performer, for me, is Tabac.

    Floris JF, but to be fair, I have yet to try any TSD soaps.

    The TSD Bamboo and Teak is my favorite scent at the moment. Every time I go in the bathroom i gotta open it and take a whiff.

    It is nice soap, expensive though and the scent to me is pretty weak, not as strongly scented as their Rose cream...:(

    I just got some TSD Victorian Rose soap from JoAnna, the scent is much stronger and the lather is great....:D

    I also like the QED Wild Rose soap, but getting it is hit and miss as it seems it is only made in small batches..:confused:

    Toss up between Erasmic and Speick. I'll choose Speick for now.

    my feelings/preferences change so often...but the one that keeps coming back (and is my latest "this is the greatest" soap): Tabac

    I should add, this is one that seems to do much better if you let the warm water sit on top of the puck for a while before lathering.

    Still searching for the one. So far I have experience with

    williams
    colgate
    vulfix
    penhaligons English Fern
    T&H Luxary
    I like the creaminess of penhaligons but the clean fresh smell of T&H.
    right now T&H is the winner, but I do have a must buy list.:D
