Now don't get me wrong. If you've got the budget to afford it and that's what floats your boat, then by all means please indulge yourself.
As for me I use Williams shaving soap at about $1.25 a cake or Van Der Hagen soap at about a buck from Wal Mart. With that I add about an almond sized drop of Musgo Real cream ($9 from Amazon.com) and a squirt from some $2 a bottle glycerin.
I'd stack my lather up against anyone's. It's like using Dream Whip topping.
