A Shaving Soap as Mentholated as Proraso Green?

[Hudsy]

What are other shaving soaps that are just as mentholated as Proraso Green?

I love the refreshing feeling that I get when I shave and then cold rinse with Proraso. Are there other soaps out there that are like this?

Thanks

If you like it stay with it. I know it is easily accessible for you seeing as you are in windsor. There should be a few shoppers drug marts near by

Almost the same is the Omega shaving cream. It comes in about the same tub, where the Omega is black and the Proraso is green ofcourse.

The only thing that comes to mind (there should be others) is Omega shaving soap... A bit less mentholated but excellent!

Poraso is my go to soap after many years of wet shaving. It's an excellent product, IMO.

But, though I haven't used it, folks speak highly of "the shave den's" Subzero soap.

Try Mama Bear's mentholated soaps. Particularly the Awakenings. Excellent soap and is much cooler than Proraso in my opinion.

c.o. bigelow is very mentholated, that's the only mentholated soap I've tried.

Indeed.
Its awesome

Mama's Awkenings is nice, indeed...tea tree, mint, and menthol, but it is essential oil based, and may cause irritation (it does for me, anyway...). Another suggestion is Saint Charles Shave's Blue Line Menthol...it rocks!

+1. Used it this morning and my face is still cool to the touch!

Thanks for all of the quick responses.

Unless I am mistaken the only C.O. Bigelow that they have is the green tube cream (which is made by Proraso for them) and I have been using this for several years now. I like it, but I have moved to soaps rather than creams.

I purchased a tub of the Proraso green and quickly moved it to my Old Spice mug. I have recently also acquired MWF and Tabac. I prefer the Tabac over the MWF (seems a little too airy) and I get a lot more nicks and cuts when I have used the MWF versus when I use the Proraso or the Tabac.

I really like the fresh feel of the menthol of the Proraso. I may have to pickup some of the Mama Bear's Awakening soap to try.

Thanks!

Work a bit harder to refine your MWF lather. This is one of the harder soaps to get a good lather out of. I use more water, but I have pretty hard water at home.

It isn't a soap, but Godrej Menthol Mist shaving cream seems to be quite a bit more mentholated than Proraso. I actually prefer the Proraso (I use CO Bigelow for full disclosure) just because I like the smell and feel of eucalyptus which Godrej lacks. If you are looking for high menthol product, though, this is it.
You can also try the Omega, Santa Maria Novella, Musgo Real, Ingrams and JM Frasiers. Most of which are creams that I have not tried. Or you can try the SCS Blue Line and the MB Awakenings line for soaps.

Mama Bear's Lime Menthol is pretty awesome.
