Well, you can either start a thread or wait for someone else to do one, but I'm pretty impressed with the Wickham 1912 line so I will start.
The last time I checked the only two places you can get the 1912 is directly through Wickham or through Connaught. I can only speak for Connaught, excellent service and the speed at getting stuff is better than some of the vendors here in Canada! For the price Canada Post charges, I should get items on the day I order it, but alas, it is the Canadian way....To the Soap! Nice strong scent out of the tub, just like I like it! The citrus Musk and the Cola are about a 6.5-7 out of the tub and stay that way throughout the shave(this makes me very happy btw). The post shave is, for me, right up there with SV and Pannacreama, most excellent. So, to recap, excellent scents, excellent lather, excellent glide and excellent post shave. One gripe if I may, can't get ahold of the AS, but Florida water goes well with both as the citrus is the leading note with both.
For the record, I absolutely hated Wickham soaps; the soap was too soft, the plastic container was too floppy... So when the 1912 came up for pre-order from Connaught I passed. My wife did not, bought me a tub, and that was the end of my Wickham boycott .
I can't be the only one using this gem, let's hear from others. Give Wickham some love, again!
After some thought , this could also have been started in the review thread, but oh well, good soap.
