I don’t have those 3 particular scents, but I’m willing to bet that Tabac beats them tooYeah, but you failed to mention you pitted Tabac against Stirling 'Old Socks', CC 'Bilge Water' and TOBS 'Stilton'.

That’s what the after shave balm is for.I shaved with PDP 63 this morning. Wonderful scent. The lather is good, but not great. The face feel afterward was very good, but not up to some of the top artisans.
Most of the posts recommend a wide variety of soaps without ever asking the OP two basic questions. 1. What type of scents do you like? and 2. Is your face sensitive to various chemicals and scents, or is your face sensitive to razor burn? Without knowing those answers, it is difficult to make reasonable suggestions.
If the face has chemical sensitivities, then soaps that have significant amounts of menthol, lime, cedarwood, sandalwood, cinnamon, clove, etc. might be problematic. I avoid menthol, lime and clove for this reason. If the face is sensitive to razor burn, the finding a soap that is very slick, very protective, and is designed to moisturize the skin after the shave becomes all the more important.
Although I love the scent of tobacco flower and freshly cured tobacco, I hate the smell of tobacco smoke, so some soaps that other love just do not work for me as they smell like a stale ash tray to my nose. I also am not so fond of grassy scents, but other love them. Thus, what type of scent is the OP seeking?
+1. Probably my favorite scent and I love the post shave feel of PdP.
Saponificio Varesino 70th Anniversary. Its got it all -- nice scent, slick, great lather and good looks.im thinking of buying two more soaps and would love to hear your recommendations for shave soaps in terms of scent and performance. Also i have sensitive skin.
Don't you make your own soap brother?PannaCrema Nuavia Blue is in my opinion the very best soap made scent wise. It's a tier 1 soap as well in terms of performance.
Grooming Dept Incense & Rose is another that I'm really fond of in scent. Performance wise Grooming Dept is the best performing soap I've found to date and I've tried just about everything out there.

Sorry. Understood my friend.I'm not a vendor on this forum so I can't discuss that here as it would be against the forum rules. My apologies but I'm sure you understand.
