You may love MDC and think it’s the bees knees while others classify it as hype and over rated. One persons top tier is another’s 2nd tier and vise versa. I, like many others, found soap Commander to be a great soap while others have not. Same is true for MWF and Tabac will always be controversial due to the scent. There are so many excellent options out there now-a-days that you have a great range of choices unlike yesteryear where people were limited to the local offerings of say Williams or Arko. We are in a great time today to have so many options and opportunities.
Love this! I’ve said it a thousand times. When it comes to razors and honing it’s always “the shave test, the shave test”. But when it comes to soaps it’s always about the lather and how it lathers. It’s goodnto hear when someone talks about soap in terms of the shave test.
