Tabac. Is there any better?

[T Rick]

My Tabac arrived Sat. afternoon (great deal, $13.99 w/bowl + free shipping using the coupon code "Free" from Fragrance X). So Sunday, my first Tabac shave. This is the first soap I've tried that can rival the great lather I get from Proraso cream (nearly ready to declare that my favorite).

I've only tried a few other soaps (C&E, Williams, NanaJunes from eBay), but so far nothing else in a puck has come close. Oh, I like the smell a lot too, I've got the big bottle of Tabac Cologne.

So, any other soaps that lather this well out there?

You are at the tip of the iceberg, my friend

Some people get along with the Mighty T better than others. It makes great lather and performs well, but I just can't get past the smell (nose wrinkles at the thought). There are many great soaps to choose from. Here are some to think about:

Mitchells Wool Fat
D.R. Harris Arlington
Geo F. Trumpers Limes

Tabac works great, there is no doubt about that, but the Harris Marlborough gives it a real run for its money, and I like the scent so much better. I'd be hard pressed to pick a winner between the two just based on performance alone, at least with my water, brush, and technique level. The scent has edged the Harris ahead in terms of the amoung of use it sees for me. As a result of this, Harris' Arlington soap has moved into my crosshairs.

So great a threat is it to Tabac's dominance that it's thread was banished to the Shopping and Deals forum.

That would depend on what you like to see in a soap.

My puck arrived the other week and it is sweeeeeeeeet! I adore the scent and it makes a great lather. I'm very impressed and SHMBO loves to have it applied on her legs!
