For fun, I'm going to do a comparison of "traditional" UK made shaving soaps. Some of the soaps will be arriving this week with others to follow. This won't be a blind test, or an attempt to make a "scientific" comparison, but rather my own subjective opinion of my experience with these soaps. I'll use them in rotation for a couple of weeks, assuming I don't have any allergic reactions to any of them.
Note that this is not meant to be an exhaustive comparison, just a selection of some relative popular, UK-made, tripled milled shaving soaps that are mostly lavender scented (some exceptions).
On deck:
T&H Luxury
TOBS Lavender (discontinued Stearate formula, not the currently available refill)
Cyril Salter
Vintage Blades (traditional lavender)
Plisson (UK made)
Trumpers Rose (GFT doesn't do Lavender...I picked Rose b/c it is the most "classic" to me of the GFT scents)
DR Harris Lavender
Though not technically a part of this main grouping, I'll be testing out TOBS new Jermyn St. shave soap, as I've heard it is the best of TOBS current Palmate based, milled shave soaps.
Other than TOBS Lavender and GFT Rose, this will be my first time using any of these soaps.
