I like the SRD glycerin soaps - sandalwood is one of my go to soaps. I go for that soap just as much as tabac. That says a lot because I have over 20+ soaps and creams in my arsenal.
At about $25 you won't be late paying your mortgage either.

Good to hear. Especially regarding the bay rum. I had another bay rum soap that was terrible. It didn't lather well and what lather it produced fell apart in minutes. I'd like to have a decent bay rum soap. I may have to go in for that sampler as well to get acquainted with the scents.
For me if it was going to be one soap it would be Arko. Great lather and a fresh smell. Oh and did I mention cheap? one of the best out there for me.
Buy it in 10 or 12 sticks for the best deals. Can be used as a stick direct to face, or pushed into a bowl / mug. Versatile as well.
I also love that my bathroom always smells fresh if I leave it out on the counter after use. It's not overly powerful but noticeable as you walk by….great!!! and the wife likes it too.
I also love Proraso and Tabac but not for everyday use.
Oh did I say I love Arko?
+ 1 with the Cella great stuff and last a long time.
Right up there with Arko for a good yet inexpensive soap, not cream, would be Palmolive shave stick, LEA shave stick and Speick shave stick all of which are tallow based. A step up in price but good would be DR Harris soap puck and the new Valobra soap pucks also tallow based I believe.
If you add creams to the list then Maca Root from The Body Shop is good at a decent price. Another that is good and cheap is Wilkinsons in the blue tub. It is more like a croap and is glycerine based I believe.

Arko is by far the cheapest but don't let that fool you...great soap and the scent is a love it or leave it type of smell, but for me rinses right off. It lathers easy, and is slick stuf. Cella is also a great soap and is not that expensive. also you might want to try a stick of Palmolive. Thats another underrated soap. and for the money conscious Van Der Hagan, is very available and pretty cheep and I think works very well with a nice scent. I own some of the more expensive soaps and to tell the truth I rarely use them, so you don't have to spend a ton to get a decent or great soap. Others will be a long behind me with other soaps ans they may have more experience but for me, I know I can find a good soap for me under 10 bucks
Queen Charlotte soap.It has all the great features.
Proraso IMO, variety of soaps and great bang for the buck....
