I'd like to welcome @ildbig to our Arko Scent Discussion Liberation Thread. He recently had to resurrect a 2008 thread about the scent of Arko because for some unknown reason the men on this site refuse to discuss this important topic. This sickly silence must stop. Welcome, @ildbig! This thread is for guys like us!
I think you'll find that there is a global conspiracy involving governments, billionaires and big tech trying to keep this important topic from.being reported on but for the life of me I can't imagine why urinal pick manufacturers are trying to suppress the fact that their products have ripped off the Arko scent.I'd like to welcome @ildbig to our Arko Scent Discussion Liberation Thread.

Apparently some of the posh French soaps remind some men of Arko:
Pre de Provence arrived but it stinks. Yuk!
I'm disappointed because I was looking forward to an awesome shave. This stuff smells like a urinal puck. It's going back. Didn't even try it. Just closed the lid and stuck it back in the box. Does the 63 have a similar smell or is it any better? I'd really like to try it.www.badgerandblade.com
So it isn't as nice as Arko? Good to know.Regular PdP is like bath soap from a boutique hotel. Or possibly the nicest French laundry detergent you can imagine.
For the dedicated fans of Arko, nothing else will do. I'd rather shave with PdP any day.So it isn't as nice as Arko? Good to know.
Suum cuique. That's Latin for YMMV! I recently was gifted some PdP Bergamot Thyme soap by a fellow B&B man and it really is an outstanding product.For the dedicated fans of Arko, nothing else will do. I'd rather shave with PdP any day.
I liked this quote on that thread:Apparently some of the posh French soaps remind some men of Arko...
you either have a weird sense of smell or you are on drugs...
Don't you know the dangers of Arko being so close to PDP. This is basic chemistry.One is a bit more “lemony”.....

Which encourages me to use Arko tomorrow for my shave.Arko and Tabac have something in common:
They both smell like a good shave’s about to happen.
And the other smells like a urinal puckOne is a bit more “lemony”.....

I just rubbed some Arko on my face, worked it into a really nice lather, and had a delightful shave. It is a fine soap.
Smells like ivory. Post shave like Tide.I think I may be in the minority here insofar that I rather like the scent but I just can't live with the post-shave feel - it's drier than the Sahara!
