You Have an Empty Wooden Bowl That Needs a Puck of Soap. You Can Have Only One...

[CyberJCM]

And that one you choose, it's gotta be, in your opinion, the best soap available that you must absolutely have. Not a "desert island soap" or a hypothetical "it's the only soap you can have" question. More like a question to discover what guys tend to think are the best soaps they could and would own. Their #1 so to speak.

Which would you choose?

D.R. Harris Arlington

At this moment...MWF. I reserve the right to change my mind as I try other soaps. I like Mike's Natural Soaps, too. Still haven't tried D.R. Harris Arlington that I just purchased. Oh...the world of shaving soaps!

#1 is Tabac and I don't need the Wooden Bowl, a very close second is Klar Seifen Lotus/Ginger, Klassic or Sport & since the tin is small, ~2.5" diameter, I'd grate it into the Wooden Bowl.

While I think technically they are considered croaps and are called creams, they do come in pucks. I would be torn between QCS Iced Key Lime or a MWS Lime. I haven't tried a MWS Lime, but the one I have is probably the BEST I have ever used edging out QCS by just a hair. I am a sucker for anything lime scented and the menthol in the IKL would make it a VERY hard choice indeed.

Tabac but keep it as stick.

Is Matt at QCS planning to keep the IKL and make it a soap too? I have the cream and thought it was just a limited run for July, and only as a cream. BTW that stuff is amazing!

Tabac, hands down. I would be sad to see the others go, but Tabac is a must have in my book

 

[elsmooth]

Harris Arlington or Marlborough (or Windsor, though I don't have that one yet).

Yeah, it was only offered for July. I hope it was popular enough to add to his line up or at the very least offer seasonally. He does sell the Vostok menthol crystals you can add to your own soap/cream as well. For now though the IKL is hands down one of my favorites.

 

[njpaddy]

Harris Marlborough. The reason being that my 3 favorites (Harris Lavender, Arlington and GFT Rose) are already in wooden bowls, so if I had an empty bowl I'd get Marlborough to put in it.

 

[alfbacca]

Harris Arlington for me.

Mike's Lime, it leaves my face feeling as good as MWF but has a better scent.

 

[cnnc97]

Arlington

I have Windsor on the way, so that could change in a week.

You know my answer, John!
If it comes in a puck, I'm going with Calani... I'll go with the Classic Havana scent.

(Klar Siefen would be a serious contender here if the "puck" would be a little more bowl friendly...)
