Haha! I will have to order the aftershave because I can't find it anywhere here! Hopefully it shows up.....

I have the Tabac shave cream and have had no luck lathering with it. I understand that the soap is a better experience. I too am not fond of the scent.

Hey though, YMMV!

The MWF, not so much. I have a harder time getting it to lather and the performance just does not live up to all the hype but I find myself wanting it to work and will keep experimenting with it. Maybe it is just my technique. I use a skuttle but seems like I really develop the lather on my face. Really like the ceramic container but not sure it will always have MWF in it. If it matters I'm using a Thater 4292/5 dual band silver tip brush, great brush, by the way.

I am sure that I will always have a puck of Tabac going and can't imagine how a soap could be better. Just no clue as to why it's so good.

Soap certainly must be one of those YMMV but I really can't say enough about how well it is working for me.

If you grate MWF then pack it into a pack it into a cup sized pyrex bowl, it turns into a beast. If I don't use this approach, I don't get good results from it either. Like you, I think Tabac is the bomb.
