A while back I tried some 'Love My Skin' shave soap (Cedarwood) that really lathered up nicely without a lot of work, provided great cushion, nice but not overpowering scent and comes in a wide variety of scents at a really decent price, less than $5.00 shipped for a puck. Google 'Love My Skin' for more info.

There is a seller on eBay (sbtanning) that lists several scents with ingredients of each, how to lather and instructions on building uber lather. I'll be a return customer once I use up some of my current soap supply.
