Question for Vendors-- Shaving Soap

This is a great question and I am enjoying the artisans' responses. I saw recently saw in print that the creator of Tiki bar soaps has a favorite scent which really surprised me. I don't even see that scent on her web site.  My friend who introduced me to wet shaving about 2 years ago had never tried Stirling until I sent him a sample of Lampasas. He went on to order the Glastonbury and states it may be his favorite soap in his den.

At Rod's recommendation I have Glastonbury on the way to try out and I'm really curious to see what all the rave is about. I had some issues with burning with a lot of the frag rance oil soaps, but oddly enough Bay Rum of all scents was fine for me when I tried the sample, as was the Tea Tree. I'm hoping the EO soaps work out a little better for me because there are 4 on the way (Glastonbury, Bay Rum, Ben Franklin, Gin & Tonic).

I still have a shave stick of Lampasas. If Glastonbury selling slow is my number 1 disappointment, Lampasas is  #1A.  I think it was just a failure in picking the name, as not too many people outside of Central Texas are familiar with Lampasas.

Rod I may have to save my pennies and buy you r Glastonbury. I trust my friend's opinion and like I said, it may be his favorite soap.

Great thread and like others I have more on the list of must tries. Love hearing directly from the artisan community what is at the head of their creations.

I don't really understand why Green Tea & Bergamot doesn't get more love. It's a great scent, walks that line between herbal, spicy and sweet all at once.

Just ordered today some samples, and can't wait to get them!

What do you think of Green Tea and Bergamont?

Should arrive soon. I'd be happy to give you my impression.

Did you try Glastonbury yet?  I'm about to place an order and will get a tub of that too

I did and I like it, susprisingly my wife does as well. It's not my personal favorite and I can see how it might be somewhat polarizing, but definitely worth trying if you like more earthy inspired scents. Of those 4 I listed above, Ben Franklin is my favorite but that's probably also a "love it or hate it" scent in its own right. I have to stick with the EO scents because the FO tend to irritate my skin Rod has 20+ EO soaps so it isn't a big deal for me.
