Just got around to using the stick I bought at the beginning of the year. This stuff is amazing, I think I actually prefer it slightly more than Tabac! I have read a lot of love and hate for the smell and I can see where this comes from. To me it smells like a much more intense version of Williams with a hint of Pinaude Clubman.
Oh Arko!

I also love the shave I get from the Arko. The scent is strong when you first unwrap it but mellows quite nicely over time. If you find it too strong, throw it in an old suitcase or gym bag and pull it out in a month or two. Personally, the smell doesn't bother me at all and I even like the smell once it has mellowed.

Quite to the contrary, I rather enjoy it.
Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrkkkkkkkkkkkoooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
I CALL BLASPHEMY AND/OR SHENANIGANS ON THIS STATEMENT!!
I like Arko too, but I would never trade in my Tabac for it, I think that's one you'll have to pry from my cold dead hands.
polo!!!!
They also carry a matching bath soap (I use that for prep): Duru White soap, aswell as a matching Eau de Cologne: Duru Limon. There's also an A/S Cologne ARKO Citrus, that matches nicely.

But with Arko it is actually economical to leave it in someone's cold dead hands and buy a perfectly new stick... or dozen new sticks.
Arko is a favorite soap of mine, it has price, scent, and lather all in one
Arko rocks. 
I love the soap but kind of hate the scent... 
Great thread. The Arko Polo thing had me LMAO. I really liked this soap from the first time I used it. It lathered up very easy and gave me a great shave. You can't beat that for the price.

I always end up going back to Arko. For me, it has the best lather, and is the most moisturizing soap that there is.
I used Arko for the first time the other day. The lather was nice but the smell was awful. It took two days to get the smell to get out of the bathroom. My wife told me if I use it again she will make me go back to using the canned goo. 
Arko is a good soap.
So, I have a stick of this upstairs. How do I use it?
I've never tried the soap but I have tried the Menthol Cream, are they similar?
I've always wanted to try it just never got around to it. Only thing though SWMBO doesn't even like the smell of the cream, says it smells like some kind of cleaner.

You're not serious are you?
Try Arko first, then try some expensive stuff. Then decide which one gives you the better shave for the money?
