I was thinking yesterday it might be nice to mill 2 pucks of Williams and a puck of mwf together. i love the scent of williams and the performance of mwf so it seems like a match made in heaven. any thoughts?

HERETIC!!!!!
Someone get a rope!
I too actually like the smell of Williams. I think it's a good idea. I would suggest using only half a puck of Willaims to a whole puck of MWF. That should give plenty of scent, without diluting the MWF performance.
You can always add more Wiliams later, if desired. But you couldn't take it out.....

The synergistic effect does not always work..
I'd leave MWF alone... It's tough to improve on perfection!

yes... heretic. how dare you defile a Williams soap?
Arko has a very similar scent to Williams and actually works!
Try it if you haven't.

Why?
Mixing Williams with MWF? That's just a gateway. Pretty soon you're going to turn into Frankenstein...mixing TOBS with Trumper, Conk with Mama Bear, Tabac and Yardley...the madness!!!
so - riddle me this:
why NOT combine the slippery scentilicious goodness of a Mama Bear soap with the cushiony tallowonderfulness of a vintage tallow (though sadly scent-free) soap? Such as Colgate's Barbers or Williams.
HUH????
WHY NOT??????? what are you afraid of??????

Give it a spin and tell us how it works.
...gonna.
oh yeah, re: MWF... ick. ick ick ick. over-rated, fetishized... etc etc etc.
I would not sully my Mama's w/ MWF.
but that over-priced glass bowl makes a nice change-catcher on the dresser.
...on the other hand, and of course, different strokes for different folks. I'm sure that everyone who loves MWF are very nice, discerning people. Just not for me, is all....
ymmv,verily

Is MWF the new Tabac around here?
It's like Right v. Left with those two. It's all good banter.
I don't know how well they'd incorporate milled together, but it could work.
I personally used to just load the brush most of the way with a tallow soap, then finish loading on the heavily scented glycerin (haven't tried Mama Bears, but seems to work with almost all glycerin soaps just as well). Works very well, even with Williams. Kind of a twist on Blue Willy.
Now to do it with a vintage is a great idea. Stretches your vintage soap out AND adds great scent. I know what I'm doing with my Open pucks of O/S. Guess I need to get some nice Glycerin scents.
Well you could put a few drops of AV on top of the MWF . . . I tried it with the Williams and it made a smell like wires burning insulation under a car dash.
I think when I get to try MWF I'm going to like it just the way it is.

I heard that in ancient lore if this were to ever happen that Johnny Cash would come down from the heavens in his Cadillac pulled by an army of Valkyrie on flying horses to bring smote unto earth and destroy kittens with his guitar.
Please. For the kittens...
