Absolutely the best scent I've yet encountered wet shaving. Smells autumnal to me.

is Haverford supposed to be the fragrant pipe smoke scent or more tobacco leaf scent?
On the pipe smoke end, to me, or seriously cured Cavendish.
I would describe it as a spicy vanilla tobacco pipe tobacco blend if you smell the pouch of tobacco.
Edit: Also I’m from central Kentucky and when I was growing up people were still raising and curing burley tobacco. I remember driving by the tobacco fields and the curing barns during the harvest. I guess that’s why I associate it with fall

What a nice description. I’m going to have to try it.
Haverford is a pretty decent Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille dupe. You could get more feedback and impressions by searching the Tom Ford fragrance.
yup this just fell into numero uno spot.

Good tip. Thanks.
A kilo of Cella is a favorite of mine, or Arko shaved and bowl pressed, then there's Van der Hagan deluxe
I just tried Stirling Gatlinburg.
Ver nice scent!

Agree! I picked up a stack of fall Stirling soaps recently, and they are all excellent. Hot Apple Cider, Pumpkin Spice, Autumn Glory, and Gatlinburg are all great.I just tried Stirling Gatlinburg.

I just used Haverford for the first time and this was exactly the pipe tobacco scent that I was looking for. It reminds me a lot of the fragrance of the tobacco / pipe smoke my father used. This is going to be a go to Fall / Winter soap for me. Thanks to all who recommended it!
Glad you’re enjoying it. Scents have a way of connecting us to (hopefully) fond memories
How do you guys get through so many tubs of soap!! I've got about 20 in my drawer which means anything more I buy just accumulates (but I'm using boars now, which helps!). Strictly sample sizes for me these days. I received yesterday a package of samples from Maggards to help me get my head around Summer ending (I need all the help I can get). Used Autumn Ash today. Very nice soap. A little strong on the incense note for my liking. Really looking forward to trying Leviathan, Darkfall and Massacre of the Innocents.
Stirling Christmas Eve, Coniferous, and Gatlinburg.

A little poofier than I prefer
I love fall! Long Rifle has been an autumn staple for me. This year I’m rotating through Voyegeur, Leatherstocking, and Hunting Lodge. I’ve also got a couple of shaves worth of the old B&M Hallows left that I’ll finish up and maybe buy a new tub since they brought it back.
