I purchased Fjellheim soap and the balm.........I hope it is awesome, I've not had good luck with scents lately, fingers crossed. I have collected several soaps, that I just am not using mainly due to the scent. Th Folgefonn sounds good too...

I went with Slatteroy and Neroli which both have scents I like.

You have a lot of good quality soaps on the list. Here's a few I recommend.
Martin De Candre (the best!!!) MWF, C&S 88, Tabac, Penhaligons, DR Harris
I am a definite fan of Classic shaving soaps...they are very affordable, great lather and the scents are not "fake or chemical smelling. As for skin comfort...that will be up to you as everyones chemical make up is different as to how it reacts to certain soaps. Good luck
My must tries include
Tabac - great long lasting lather with cushion and glide. It's also very forgiving of soap/water ratios.
Mike's Soaps- great scents and lather.
DR Harris - a british soap that is still first rate. A puck will go a long way so it's not expensive relative to number of shaves.
