Tabac for me. No brainer.

I'm very familiar with all the soaps in my den, that being said, if my face needs some pampering from a long day in the boat I reach for Wholly Kaw
Haslinger's schafmilch for me!
Haslinger Schafmilch, no need to mess about blooming just load brush and boom, MWF also cuts it but i prefer the little austrian
Another boring vote for Tabac - it just plain works... Haslinger's and Sudsy Soapery would be next in the arsenal..
The Body Shop Maca Root for me - As an added bonus, I find that scent to be nice and light and that it pairs well with many of my various aftershaves. Sometimes I will use the Maca Root simply because I haven't yet decided which aftershave scent I will want to wear.
Keep a stick of Arko handy. When all else fails, Arko will come through (even if you don't like the scent).
Something volabra tallow. Any of them - AoS, C&S, the blue bowl or the stick.
My go to for a bad shave day... Tabac. Although recently, all the new soaps I have been working with are all awesome. So having an off day, because of soap, hasn't happened for sometime now.
Tabac. Fragrance not withstanding. The soap base is just a shaver's magic trick.
Mitchel's Wool Fat. Allways a good shave.
I had a stick of pizzazzless boring Lea sitting on the shelf that had been hardly used because it was pizzazzless and boring so never given a chance. Decided i'd used it 'til gone to make a spot for something new. After a week it became apparent this stuff worked really really well for me, it became that soap, that one, the one that if i wanted a great shave and could no longer stomach the scent of those i can usually stomach, Lea can save the day.
Lea Stick- unscented, pizzazzless and boring works great for me.

Valobra and it's other variants, also any PannaCrema Nuavia and I Coloniali if I want a sure great shave.
I don't really have one as I don't find any soap very difficult to work with. However, I do, primarily, use artisanal soaps and they are superb.
I'm surprised no-one has mentioned it, but for me it's Baume.Be cream.
My Long Rifle soaps, in any scent, are my most reliable and therefore my baseline. Recovery soap is a great description, and I can always go back to one of these when I have had a rough shave or just want to "reset".
+1 Also, CRSW Select anything . . .
