    No experience with T&H soaps. I have DR Harris Arlington and TOBS Jermyn Street soaps and the work well. Arlington has a light scent and Jermyn Streets is a strong scent. I like both scents. Anyway, just a couple of alternatives.

    Excellent point - they are fantastic soaps, the DR Windsor is superb IMO - one of the few soaps that you smell like you've been in an 19th Century English Gentleman's Club discussing the colonies and oppressing the masses...has that classic uppercrust smell AFAIC....

    I have the D.R. Harris Arlington and Marlborough soaps in my rotation and have the Windsor
    on my "to buy" list.

    Just to muddy the waters () the T&H Ultimate Comfort is the best shaving cream I've ever used.

    This is in no way pertinent to the thread and contributes nothing. Nice to get it off my chest though.

    D.R. Harris is one puck I will not buy again. For some unknown reason I could never get a good lather. Never tried their creams.

    T&H cream is a very good soap. I have not tried their pucks.

    I have only creams from Dr. Harris, both Windsor and Arlington. Although I have never tried the soaps, I believe the creams have a stronger scent and easier to lather than the pucks.

    +1 In the Cream department I would have to agree - T&HUC is what I recommend to friends when they are thinking about dropping the goo, it is an excellent gateway drug in to wet shaving...

    And the water is almost always muddy when its moving fast...
