What soap got you into artisans?

I had a bunch of stuff gifted to me by a shave guru buddy but then he recommended B&M Diamond and that scent was all she wrote. I had to have the weirdest stuff out there after that showed up. It’s been awesome.
Mike's & Mystic Water
Mystic Water. Went form Williams to trying MW. Couldn't use it, just awful for my skin and the lather was a soupy runny mess in our water. I was devastated, wanted to love the soap! Ruined me on small makers for a while. But it worked great for my son so... YMMV!
Did a pass around recently and found some truly fine artisan soap for my face and lathering the stuff isn't a black art. Black Tie Razor, Beehive Shaving Soap, Oleo, Lisa's, CBL.

My first real soap besides Williams was Col. Conk, picked up the 4 pack online as I was curious about the different scents, once I found out that shave soap comes in pretty much any scent you can think of I was off and running. Shortly after that I made a trip to Maggards and picked up some Soap Commander Courage and a bunch of others that sent me deep down the rabbit hole lol it has been a interesting adventure but wouldn't trade it for the world.
My first artisan soap was a result of someone here getting me intrigued. Can’t blame that on the soap. It was one of you! 
. (Thank you, btw)
. (Thank you, btw)First shaving soap aside from Williams (that I still can't seem to lather properly years later lol) was the 4 variety pack of Col. Conk soaps. They were great entry soaps to the world of wet shaving.
After that was a tub of Soap Commander Courage from Maggards. Going to that store I was in awe of all the great choices to put things into perspective. Nick Shaves was pretty popular at the time and soap Commander was one a lot of people were talking about. The tubs still are unique with a simple yet effective soap base.

Proraso was my brand until I discovered this forum! Looking at the Wonderful Shaves of The Day: Southern Witchcrafts caught my attention. I’ve been using their products almost exclusively ever since.
B+M Seville was my first

Arkadia smells so good and Stirling soaps work so well!

Mike’s Coconut soap was my first and I still love the lather and post shave qualities of Mikes. Mike’s, Stirling Mutton base and B&M Omnibus soaps are the only soaps I use. Fantastic!!
