Re: T&H Luxury Shaving Soap Revisted
I tested the Vintage Blades soap way back in 2012. It was unlatherable garbage and basically okay only as bath soap. T&H at the time did the same thing. If T&H has improved more recently, that's good but they should toss any old stock that's the unlatherable stuff. It appears GFT has not imp...

FS: L'OCCITANE CADE AFTERSHAVE SPLASH (Discontinued) + CADE
Up for sale is the legendary, discontinued, unobtainable L'Occitane CADE after shave splash. If you have been around the various shaving forums and other shave sites for awhile you know what this is and you know how much of a bummer it is that it is no longer being made nor sold. I bought this item ...

Re: Sandalwood Scents
The closest I have used that smells like "real" sandalwood and not sweet clove/cinnamon perfume is Fitjar Sandalwood cream and Nanny's (the UK artisan soaper) shaving soap in the puck form.

Re: G.F. Trumper Rose Soap
Maybe about a year ago, a lot of stores were still selling wood bowls (i.e. not refills) that were manufactured in 2008 and earlier, these were the "good" veggie formula pucks. The post-2008 refill puck that I tried was garbage. I do not know if there is now a better version out there but ...

I have pucks of Arlington, Lavender, and Marlborough, as well as the Almond stick. All of them lather up with ease, with very little thinking or effort on my part. Maybe I just got lucky or my lather technique is well suited to Harris soaps or something...not sure....but I have definitely used other...

Gordon, I think a lot of us out there are frustrated with the UK brands' shaving soaps. At least Harris and TOBS are still making soaps that do what they're supposed to do. Why the other brands don't want to invest in proper user testing and batch testing I can't say. It really is perplexing. On the...

The Cyril Salter soap I bought a few months ago was excellent. It's sad to hear another product has gone downhill. Regards, Rick Rick, where did you buy it from? It's possible your puck might have been from an older lot/run or what I got was from a really bad newer batch. Since Salter doesn't reall...

I was wondering the same thing about Klar...yet I don't really need 500g of any soap...overloaded on soaps already...might be up for a 100g brick if anyone buys the big 500g package and wants to saw off a block. If you want a nice rose scented soap, and don't absolutely require that it's a hard trip...
