Kindly recommend me a "summer" shaving soap?

[icedoverfire]

Hello all,

I know it's winter, but I've only got three weeks of winter. I return home from the tropics for three weeks, then I return to the tropics/summery weather for almost a year. With this in mind, does anyone have any recommendations for "summery" shaving soaps? I really liked Mama Bear's Awakenings when I tried it. Is there anything else I should look into/consider?

Thanks in advance,

- ice

How about Castle Forbes lime? It's a hard cream/soft soap.

QCS Vostok was made for the tropics.

Mike's Lemongrass & Eucalyptus. Has a great summertime scent. I think it's good year round.

Saint Charles Shave; Lemon Verbena, Lime and Moss lime sound good.

I enjoy D.R. Harris Lavender soap in the summer, as well as Klar Kabinett.

D.R. Harris Arlington, Mama Bears Mandarin Ice, and RazoRock Don Marco.

Proraso, D.R. Harris Arlington and Lavender.

Proraso
Speick shave stick would be nice for summer also.

Another vote for Mike's Lemongrass + Eucalyptus.

Arlington and Proraso are great summer soaps for me.

Yardley, MdC, P160 are year-round soaps so I can't ignore those. But Arlington really is perfect for the summer.

another vote for proraso here. any menthol/eucalyptus type soap should suffice though.

I've been loving the Vostok sample I got so much that it's hard to reach for anything else. If your looking for cold, this is the best I've tried.

my summer soap was always Proraso.But the scent of Bay Rum screams tropics as well.

Mikes Natural Soaps Peppermint. All natural cooling effect.

-1 on anything Proraso! Hate that these things have enough menthol to wipe out a small army!

My suggestion is Trumper's Rose soap. Lovely and delicate rose scent.

I just saw and ordered this:
TFS Scheerzeep "Summer" aroma intenso 100 ml

Can't give experience yet

+1 Mike's lemongrass as well as Mike's peppermint rosemary

Proraso can't be beat!

Valobra Menthol. You might want to pick up some Osage Rub as well.
