Someone described tallow as "dirty shirt smell." I'll buy that. "Tallow funk."
Old Valobra, several-year-old Stirling, some very old Cella of mine have a bit of it. Others have totally lost scent.
Exposure to air might do it, perhaps lathering on the puck exacerbates it. Don't know. None were exposed to heat.
One old soap has turned yellower, lost scent and has tallow funk. It's ok! It's a natural product. Still works fine.
Just use them up quicker, is all you have to do. Or consider all the excellent vegan soaps. Tallow's not needed, IMO, for superb shave soap.
