I have got to stop reading these soap and cream threads. Just ordered Valobra Patchouli hard shave soap puck, should remind me of the hippy dippy 60s in high school. So you can ad another to an already too long rotation.

Bob,
Good show. This new puck version of Valobra is really impressive. The old The Art of Shaving soap was made by Valobra, and that's why I have always been fond of it. By the way, the patchouli scent in Valobra is relatively mild, unlike the old Hippy-days' version of patchouli.
Thank you Obie for the news of the scent strength being a bit tamer. That is probably good news along with your opinion of the new puck version being impressive.

Thank you, Bob. The fragrance of patchouli is still strong in my senses from the old San Francisco days. My wife and I lived there during the 1960s, when patchouli was part of the city's air. Ah, yes, those were exciting times in San Francisco. Anyway, Bob, I am really impressed by the soap's overall quality. Really good stuff.
I have around 30 soaps/creams but my very favourite is Mike's Barber shop.
I have lost count of my soaps and creams. However, about a year ago, I estimated that I had enough soap to last over 10 years and I have obtained more since then. Remember, nothing exceeds like excess. You need every single one of each and every soap and cream you come across. In fact you need a minimum of three of each brand:beer1:
I dont have that many... Cella and razorock classic are my favorite! Love the almond scent and Cella is just great! Nough said! I also have mama bear amaretto! I have to say... Wow for a cheap soap! I like it alot! Jack black samples! Many of them! I have to say! I would never buy this soap/cream brand! Too expensive and it doesnt match cheaper better brands in my opinion! SRD lavender! I like it ... But i like it more for summer days! It has a nice fresh feel and clean fresh scent... Those are in my rotation at the moment
I have about 10 different soaps/creams in my rotation, but I find myself reaching for Cella and MDC more often than the rest. I love the scent of both and they are just so easy to lather up and work really well. I have others that work the same, but the scents aren't the same. I don't like reading posts like this cause every time I do I always wind up buying soaps and creams that I haven't tried yet that others mention. Fortunately I have been able to control myself some lately. Some:o
