    Default Fine Classic Shaving Soap

    I've been looking forward to this one. I love Fine's aftershaves and have heard that they have done limited releases of soap in the past. This is supposed to be a different formula from previous releases.
    Should be showing up today and I'm excited

    Maiden voyage was this morning and it went great. I had a little trouble dialing in the lather initially but my patience was rewarded with plenty of great smelling cushiony goodness. Scent strength was mid to slightly strong and matches the AS perfectly.
    Very nice glide gave me a nick free shave with very little irritation(I'm still working on technique with a straight razor and my angle tends to be a little high, so irritation is no fault of the soap), and the post shave felt great. I'll be using this fairly often I think.

    The soap is being compared to Tabac, which sounds promising. I'm looking forward to hearing more SRP member experiences and if different scents are going to be available.

    I'm hoping they will add scents. I would buy it in Fresh Vetiver or Platinum in a heartbeat.

    I'm a little bummed it only came out in a puck so far. I may still pick one up but I'd prefer it in a tub. Just my .02.

    Maybe they'll come up with a tin or jar in the future. I had a spare empty so it didn't bother me too much, but I like the look of their AS bottles and it would be cool if they designed something special for their soap.

    I like the old fashioned packaging. More retro and environmentally friendly

    Used it a couple times now and it's a very good soap.
