PAA Agharta. Wow what a scent, hard to discribe but very glad I too the chance.
Not a lot of information on Laugar. I know Skogsra contains Juniper essential oil, but I'd like to get some opinions on the scent. Is it strong? Long lasting? Recommended?...Laugar Skogsra...
I find MdC one of the two best soaps I have ever used. I do not find the scents to be long-lasting, though. My particular favorites from MdC are Fougere & Agrumes. Others will heap praise on the Original or Rose. They are all excellent soaps, it's a matter of what you prefer in the scent. I suggest you purchase samples of the various scents you're interested in & try those before purchasing a tub. The samples will each yield quite a few shaves so you will know the scent & quality before you buy.I'm looking at adding a Martin de Candre shaving soap to my collection, at it's hefty price i can imagine it may well be my only purchase of MdC, first off i know everyones taste(so to speak) is different regarding scents, but I'd like to know the most popular of the MdC scents, i prefer strong, long lasting scents, i know it obviously won't have as long a lasting scent as a cologne, but what MdC is recommended, i have faith in you guys judgements
I think that’s going to be my next purchase as soon as my paycheck drops. I tried a sample from Maggard’s and really enjoyed itView attachment 1367770
I will be shaving with this tonight.
it's back, i ordered the banana, and also a tub of Midnight Stag(direct from Groomatorium), the post from the US to UK was as much as one of the soaps, but hey ho, i don't think it'll bankrupt me, ordered the Midnight Stag too, makes the post seem a bit more reasonable, looking forward to it, you know how much i love my banana scented soapsas some know, i like my banana scented shaving soaps, and had been wanting to try the Chiseled face banana for quite some time, i messaged Chiseled Face earlier to see if there was any chance of the bananacoming back in stock again, he replied saying...he has no plans for the moment of bringing it back, but hasn't ruled it out, so i will just need to keep looking and hoping
The resurrected "Seaforth!" brand is probably the only Artisan soap I will risk buying to slip past my lovely War Department. The sample I was given of the Heather blew me away.Two new soaps have made their way into my rotation: Maggard's Lilac and Spearhead's Seaforth! Sea Spice Lime.
The Maggard's soap is surprisingly good; the Sea Spice Lime, though, is blowing me away.

Of course, I'm thinking 4 oz. of lime would last me the rest of my life if I mainly used it during Summer months..... and I could always have it sent to @Owen Bawn or @shavefan 's house and they could just drive it up to me, after all the good advice I've given them over the years, I figger they owe me at least that much....

And thank YOU for giving me that sample! That stuff punches WAY above it's weight class!I'm wanting to try the lime too.
