What's new

Just went on a soap buying binge and got 3 I haven't tried. Are they any good?

I ordered Cella, Pre de Provence, and Provence Sante Verlaine. I'm pretty excited. I know you guys at least love Cella. I don't hear the others metioned often though.
 
and they were those three, I would be pretty darn happy. :thumbup1:

All three I find lather easily, and provide comfortable shaves. Take your time and get the water/product ratios right for each one and they will deliver consistently excellent results.

If you do not like them, you will have no trouble getting rid of them here.

The Review section has more.

Provence Santé is my favorite soap. I haven't tried the green tea version yet (waiting for the bowl to become available), but the verlaine has a fantastic citrus scent from the verbena and lathers like a champ.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
 
I really enjoyed the Pre de Provence when I had it. It's a light clean scent. Have some patience with it though. It's a hard soap. Work it over well when making lather and it should treat you right.

Provence Santé and Pré de Provence are both very good soaps, the Provence Santé Verlaine scent is my favourite. Pré de Provence is a great performer but the scent resembles a household product :w00t: .
 
I have not used Provence Santé, but the other two are in my top choices.

Cella is wonderful....dense, dense rich lather. Decent scent and a soap that I could use daily for decades....and likely will. This soap reminds me so much of vintage Old Spice that I am amazed (not the scent of course, but the quality of lather).

PdP also lathers wonderfully. Rich slick lather with a clean sage/rosemary scent that I find very nice. A soap that ALWAYS makes my weekly rotation.
