    I have it and quite like it. For me, I felt it was like Tabac, but far more refined...

    It definitely is a refined product.

    I love "Acqua di Colonia " parfume but shaving soap isn't so good for the price

    I was in a Nordstrom's a while back and they had a tub open on the samples tray. So many people had poked their finger in it, that it looked rather gross. But it smelled good, so I bought a tub. When I shaved w/it, it didn't smell like it did at the store. It smelled very familiar to something I already had, the original Razorrock XXX. A quick internet search revealed the the original XXX was a cheap knockoff of AdP.

    Well, I'm one of the rare, weird, few that feel the XXX gives a better shave, atleast with a SR.

    I haven't used it (can't afford it ) currently I'm really liking TOBS Rose cream and TOBS Sandlewood soap...

    It is one of the better ones out there.
    Top 10 easily.

    And the scent is simply great.

    I'm with you, still out of my price range. I'm currently working on finishing (and really liking) Col Conk Bay Rum. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I guess.
    I think AdP should go on my bucket list, though.

    I started a thread a while back stating that very fact.

    Click link below

    That was with the old Razorock formula. I haven't tried or even stuck my beak in the new formula.
