Had the bowl w/Marlborough about 5 or 6 years ago. Loved the performance and the scent but wasn't thrilled with the bowl. By the time the soap was done the lid had warped a little and the finish on the entire bowl was pretty much rubbed off. I still have it, and it's usable, but If I get a replacement puck I think I'll just use it in one of my big porcelain mugs with the handle. More efficient and not as messy as the little bowl anyway.

That sounds like my experience. I got no tobacco or ash scent (which is good because I don't like those anyway) but a strong WOOD fragrance. You are right about the cedar and I believe the rest is sandalwood. GREAT scent - timeless.
^ Agree. There's also a hint of vanilla/powder (even more noticeable in splash).
Count me in for a Marlboroughvember 2020!
Have been a proud owner of the shaving cream for 6 years. Bought a tube first as I wasn’t sure I’d like the smell. I love it!
If I can get a little off topic - has anyone tried the Marlborough After Shave? If so, is it EXACTLY like the soap fragrance or "not exactly"? Don't want to take a chance if it's not really the same.
The (splash) menthol gives the scent a twist. Otherwise, there's no appreciable difference, in terms of underlying Marlborough parfum, ime.
(OTOH, the cream differs from the puck, somewhat. The cream has just one scent ingredient: alpha-isomethyl ionone.)
