Smells great as a soap but would never want it as a cologne

B&B gang,

I am interested to hear what shaving soaps you love for their scent but would NEVER want as a cologne.

Floor is yours....

Lots of them, especially the brands that market them as unscented. Think La Toja, MWF, Haslinger Schafmilch etc - would you really want a soapy scented cologne?

Turning this around - my favorite cologne would make a terrible shaving soap. Its Santa Maria Novella's Nostalgia. It smells like gasoline, burnt tires and leather. Imagine shaving with that!. However - applying that scent after shaving with a neutral soap (I use Haslinger's Aloe Vera for example) is a perfect combination.
 
Well, I'm going to go with Stirling vanilla bean espresso even though:

a) they did do it as a splash I believe, and
b) apparently no one else but me liked it as a soap scent either!
