The stick might be a little softer soap than the puck.

Not like tobacco. It's sort of a 1960s-70s masculine floral cologne vibe. A huge, messy mix of notes like lavender, neroli, bergamot, carnation, rose, jasmine, green/woody notes mixed with some funkiness like musk, oakmoss, amber.
Let's say it's not for everybody, but it's worth trying at least once.
Hehe....sorry! I sense that I opened a can of worms there!
Don't let my ignorance derail a good conversation!!OK. Thanks! Strangely, my subconscious sense of smell seems to be getting the feel for what you're describing.
Based on Nemo's response....no need for anyone else to respond!
I remember seeing it on my dads counter like in the 70s ?
Then recently got into this DE stuff and smelled it was not sure
then heard horror and praise and smelled it and thought not for me ?
Now this post I think I need to say OK and just smell again or just buy and use as it seems to have a cult following hahaahahahah

I saw people write things like you will leave it in your will for someone else to inherit or I've had marriages that didn't last as long as Tabac. There were several that I laughed at.

Tabac is French for tobacco. I'm not a sommelier of soaps, but the scent reminds me of hotel bath soaps. (And yes, the scent of Tabac is a never-ending discussion. I first signed up to B&B 10 years ago, and the discussion is still going.OK. Thanks! Strangely, my subconscious sense of smell seems to be getting the feel for what you're describing.

Wearing Tabac either makes you feel like this
or this
depending upon your impression of the scent. In either case, you’ll have women doing this

Hmmm....those all feel a little creepy to me. I might be safer avoiding Tabac then.
No idea where this nonsense of Tabac being a winter soap came from. It's a fine soap for any day any time. Tabac is the best.
And the large industrial size can from Sam's Club at that.Hehe....sorry! I sense that I opened a can of worms there!
No, it does not smell like tobacco. Though it is what I remember: tobacco and leather. I did not like it long ago, because of this. Today I tried a shave stick, and in fact I did not smell much at all. I liked the scent. Now I do not know why I disliked it back then, and went for Irish Moos. Still like the scent of Irish Moos better, though. But, nothing wrong with Tabac.

If that's the case, I'm getting the matching aftershave and toothpaste if they have it.
I've read that the stick scent is somewhat different from the soap puck?
I've got a stick from the good old days when it was made in West Germany. Scent is stronger and much deeper in the notes of leather than the puck now. I need to get a modern stick to compare!

Ah that explains why I did not like the scent back then. I still remember something strong with tobacco and leather. I like the new scent.
