Agreed. And I was gifted some Pre De Provence No 63. I am certain that if there is shaving in Heaven, the Barbershop smells like this soap. Incredible scent!
What soap would you purchase if you didn't already have enough soap to last a lifetime?

I am in love with the B&M Omnibus base, so I would be very happy if I never bought another soap. However, I would love to try MDC Rose.
I love Rose scents.
Me too
. I’ve read so many fabulous reviews of the MDC scent. To me it’s their most intriguing scent.
TOBS Sandalwood, Cella bio and the regular, Stirling glacial anything, Chiseled Face ghost town barber.
The only one I'm curious about is Seaforth Spiced, and I've never tried an oud. With known favourites for the face, the night time head shaves are open for curiosity when I get the pile depleted.
Chandu
I Waxed The Badger.
I greatly preferred original Cella scent to the Bio, but the Bio is a nicer soap.
I have a tub of Ghost Town Barber, I am not in love with it and have used it twice. If you are interested in it send me a message.
Anything not branded Stirling. I just can't get past them when it comes to my soap needs. I love everything they put out.
Proraso green tub/tube (good soap, at a great price, or vise versa) 
Pre de Provence no. 63 (one more puck will probably out last me)

MDC Fougere. But, i don't need another 3 lifetimes worth of soap.
Grooming Dept had a few Ouds. I picked one up in the last drop. Its totally different than anything else i have, and i'm not sure its something i'll target again. It's not offensive but not sure i quite get why people like Oud so much.
I don't have enough to last a lifetime but I certainly don't need any more soap anytime soon. That being said I've got several on my radar:
Mammoth - Indigo or Sonder
Ethos - Blood Orange (though the price is a little off-putting)
Murphy & McNeil - Kodiak base
PAA - Garden of Bali, Future Fiction, or Lavender Planet
Stirling Samples - Orange Chill, Ramblin' Man, Begamot Lavender, Eucalyptus Mint, Evie

Canada Shaving Soap
Why? You didn't ask, but...
1) I've never used it so I'm curious
2) It's unscented so I can pair it with any aftershave splash or balm
3) A short list of ingredients (stearic acid, coconut oil, water, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, & glycerin) that I can actually pronounce

MdC Marseille because @Steve56 made it sound wicked cool.
I’ve never heard of Marseille.
MWF was my first soap. I didn’t have problems lathering it.I have enough soaps to last the rest of my days. (But hopefully not).
There is however one soap I'd like to try.....Mitchell's Wool Fat. I've read so much saying it's great soap, but hard to lather, it causes me to think it would be a worthwhile challenge.
I would try something in the Stirling and RazoRock lines. The RazoRock Gold Label soap stick I have has all the qualities I like in a soap and the XXX scent. I’d be more than happy to try other scents.
I’ve used the Stirling Bay Rum soap sample once. I liked the scent. I’d have to use it again to focus on the soap’s qualities. Seems they know how to pack a powerful scent into their soap.
I’d also like to try the various English soaps/creams (Truefitt & Hill, Trumpers, et al).
Caswell-Massey.
Catie’s Bubbles Un Jour Gris.
Mike’s Naturals.
Finally (ha, right!), MdC (not Vetyver or Fougere).
But since I have a lifetime supply…
I think I should have just bought samples instead of full sized soaps. Samples are the way for me to go, because I like to try everything. But since I have a lifetime supply…

I don't have a lifetime supply of anything but if I did, it'd be TOBS Cedarwood. I love the scent!
I do need to try the Pre De Provence #63. I've read so much about the scent that I finally need to buy one.

I participated earlier in this thread but having never even seen it much less tried it and going on what other people have said, I'd probably get something from Martin de Candre. I just have so much inventory now, it's not likely I'll ever take the leap. How sad is that?? I mean, we're supposed to over the top with our acquisition disorders, right?
