What say the board? I would like it to be more straightforward grapefruit scent. I love TOBS Grapefruit but cannot seem to find a soap that is similar. What would really be killer would be a menthol Grapefruit soap.
Need a recommendation for a Grapefruit soap

Wholly Kaw Pompelmo is straight grapefruit.
Try Hawaiian Shaving Company Grapefruit Ginger Soap. Scent is mostly grapefruit with a hint of ginger. All natural ingredients, vegan based, and got activated charcoal in it so it looks black in the tin.
I've been wondering about WK Pompelmo. Have you tried it?
Mama Bear Grapefruit Ice (mentholated) is what you are looking for. Made with essential oil not a fragrance.
Wholly Kaw and Esbjerg Shaving Cream.

It is my second favorite scent of all that I have tried. It is wonderful and the as feels great on the face.
Happy shaves.

Meissner tremonia has a grapefruit. Samples are easily acquired from those that sell it.
CRSW had a grapefruit soap.

Thanks Gents for all the recommendations! I will look into all of these! Happy Shaving!!!
I’d go with WhollyKaw given their amazing donkey milk base.....
I have the WK Pompelmo and indeed it is straight up grapefruit, however it is quite a mild scent strength. I actually like that because usually WK has really strong scents that are often unpleasant (to my nose). The performance is as you would expect from their donkey milk soap base (excellent).

how long do the scents stick around? Grapefruit is notoriously short-lived as scents go.
This stuff, despite the name, doesn't smell at all like grapefruit, just fyi. At least not to my nose. I mean not even a little.
Not long at all, but in a shaving soap it should really last through the shave.
Yes, that is a good one. It is hard to find but you can get it at WCS. It also has a mild menthol kick.
Good to know. Thank you. I feel the same way about WK. I have King of Oud and LavSublime. I find Oud too strong. And I'm just not a huge fan of LavSublime. Absolutely love the way they shave, though. Sounds like Pompelmo might be up my alley.
It's great like all the WK soaps. Very fresh pink grapefruit.
Phoenix & Beau Albion has grapefruit as one of it's 3 main ingredients and is an excellent soap
Leave the top of your TOBS cream open for awhile. It’ll harden up, and voila.
Haven’t found anything as pure and punchy as TOBS grapefruit. If only it tasted as good as it smelled.
