Ok, so I finally decided to pull the trigger on a Grooming Dept. soap and boy am I glad I did! I got After the Fire (tallow & duck fat) and after 4 uses, I can say that this formula is firmly in my top tier of favorite soaps. It's easily as good as WK donkey milk or L&L, but where it's better is that it takes less work and time to get the lather where it needs to be. The scent is fantastic as well and is pretty stout to my nose (about 7 out of 10). If you like smoky type scents, this is a must have. It's really well done and if this is any indication of Mohammad's scent crafting abilities, I'm definitely interested in purchasing more flavors in the future. The only drawback for me with this particular scent is that it irritates my face. Nothing crazy fiery, but enough to make it uncomfortable during the shave unfortunately. I'm not going to go as far as saying that Grooming Dept. is going to replace all of my other soaps because the performance to me is on par with (if not a little better than some) and I like the variety. Excellent stuff overall and I would recommend trying it 100%.
