More Deep Thoughts than Jack Handy
I've been using OPR shave soap, Bay Rum scent...has a mild sweet scent. It has several slick oils in it and it's a soap that doesn't foam up much. Works good as a pre-shave. I put OPR on first and then lather my face with whatever shave soap I've chosen for the morning shave.

Depot no. 401 pre & post shave skin protector sample. Last spin with the sample. The scent was not that great but I think it gave good protection.

I tried Cremo as a pre-shave for awhile. Seemed to work well.

Reading your post made me think about the Bowman Brothers oil based shave soap my niece gave me for Christmas.

The ingredients look like they might work as a pre-shave:
