Nice to see. I, too, have soaps and creams that "only" go with specific brushes; so, perhaps my best example of "luxury" is Acqua di Parma Colonia shaving cream (used solely with my finest brush, "Frank", a sterling silver handle that was retrofitted in silvertip badger by Bernd@Shavemac more than a decade ago, together with its companion sterling silver mug, "Nora"), a shaving cream which is made all the more luxurious by the matching ASB and EDT.
