Me too!    So nice.  Incredible performers and I haven't found a scent I don't enjoy.  The Rodrigo De Jerez is probably the most strongly scented one of the the 6 that I have now - I also have the post shave balm in the Rodrigo scent and its a nice product too.

Marko - we have similar scent receptors. Lol
The 3 of those you mentioned are right at the top of the scent chain for me. I also really like the Black Rose. The salient feature for me is it performs like T&S - but I much prefer their [LJDJ] fragrance accords.

I cleaned Pasteur's out last week. Made room for them in a shelf in my office at home - if my wife sees my new hoard-she will castrate me. [already accomplished but it sounds good]

I got some more.    I’m going to show my bowl lather technique in images.  This Black rose smells great. Dark and complex. Very masculine. 

Yes. It is a man's rose Marko!

Hey, the black rose pique my interest in Joserra,

But I realize that they have a few different formulas. Is there one that stood above the others?

Since his soap is relatively high priced, it's hard for me to take a plunge on two different formulas.

I didn’t know there were two formulas. They’ve all been excellent and I haven’t noticed a difference. I’d just go ahead and pick a scent you like and go with it. I’d say that the Rodrigo scent is my favourite although I haven’t found a scent I don’t like.

Just ordered Blaz de Lezo right before TRC restock Joserra soap (just my luck...).

Hope my order will reach me soon and if I like it I'll order more. Black Rose definitely intrigue me.

Thanks for this. Thinking of grabbing some

I'm coming in to this thread very belatedly, but FWIW I am a wholehearted Los Jabones de Joserra fan.  The base never disappoints, and the scents IMO vary from okay to delightful, but tending more towards the delightful, and never faint.  My favorites so far are a dead heat between Black Rose and Rodrigo De Jerez.  

One other thing, which may be idiosyncratic to me:  While I still have enough life in me to appreciate the image of a sexy female, the intriging backstory that occasionally accompanies Joserra labels appeals to me in a more original way than selling soap with sex.  Case in point:  The Urdaneta label depicts a man standing in front of a map on which a prominent line is drawn connecting an Asian island and Mexico - a line adorned only with an eastward pointing arrowhead.  The man is the fascinating and uniquely qualified Franciscan monk, Andrés de Urdaneta, who was personally commanded by King Philip II to join a 1564 expedition from Acapulco to the "Western" (what we would call "eastern Pacific") islands, and who discovered a useable eastward return route - the line in the picture - that enabled 250 years of lucrative Manila Galleon trade between Manila and Acapulco. Rodrigo de Jerez is another case in point, if altogether less glamorous.  Rodrigo sailed with Columbus, brought tobacco back to his home town, was imprisoned by the inquisition (because only the devil could exhale smoke), and released seven years later, by which time smoking was an established habit.

From time-to-time, Jose Martinez brings history to his labels, and in a way that makes the history come alive for me.   For the record, Jose is not the only vendor whose labels impress and appeal to me in a special way, but I won't discuss any others here for fear of derailing this thread.
