I am underwhelmed at the difference in performance between the MdC and the Tabac/Fitjars soaps for the difference in cost. It is just the old the more you pay the less increase in performance you seem to get. That applies to most things not just shave soaps. I am just not feeling the increase in performance that the 100% cost increase, MdC @ $0.36 per gr and the Tabac @ $0.18 per gr, that I think I should be feeling. Ultimate performance at no matter the cost has never been where I am at buying consumer goods. It is a totally different story for other people I am sure. It depends what you include in your parameters for judging. Just a case for me that it is very good soap but ....................

    Yes, definitely see where you're going with that, and while I've been disappointed for those exact reasons with a few other soaps, in this case, for me, I was surprised for a change at how nice it was, and for me, that alone was worth the additional cost! haha!

    edited to add: any recommendations around the Fitjars? Are there different scents? Never heard of the soap until you mentioned it?
