I have been using shaving soap for the past 2 years. My favorites are Haslinger, Stirling, PDP 63, and others. All my choices cost less than $15. I find they all provide a good lather, nice scent, cushion, slickness and post shave feel that is enjoyable. In fact, I think Stirling soaps are awesome and very inexpensive.
My question is; How much better are the expensive soaps? What do they offer that justifies prices over $30? I'm talking about Antica Barbieria, Czech & Speake, and others. Is there something that makes expensive soaps more than just soap?
