I have the lime and bergamot and the lilac. Lilac products are not common and this one does smell like lilacs. My family always had roses and lilacs in the yard, so the scent reminds me of summer at home. The lather is slick and maybe not as thick as some others, but just about perfect for a straight razor. Maggard's soaps are made by Maria Arman and are good stuff!
