    QED Fresh Lime (sadly, discontinued)
    Castle Forbes Lime (actually, a "croap" -- cross between a cream and a soap; the matching EO ASB is excellent, too; no matching EDT)
    You can have everything, and still not have enough.
    I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

    Castle Forbes.
    I like the Captains Choice, lime AS. I don't care for Cologne's.

    That would be my own WeatherWaxWorshops Japonisme. But then again that was the whole point.

    That it has become a few others people favourite is merely the icing on the cake.

    What I recommend then is : DIY
    Beautiful is important, but when all is said and done, you will always be faithful to a good shaver while a bad one may detter you from ever trying again. Judge with your skin, not your eyes.

    As far as I'm concerned Castle Forbes is the best soap in the Universe and the lime is so good I could eat it. Well not quite, har har.

    I don't like scented soaps in general, shaving soap included. I also don't like colognes, after shaves and other scented stuff. That's not a judgement, just a personal preference. As most/all of you may know it is a real trick to find unscented shave soaps especially since the fats (i.e. lard, tallow and even lanolin) which make a shave soap good have a strong odor of their own. This, oddly enough doesn't bother me......what can I say? A guy wants what a guy wants.

    This all notwithstanding, lime is an odor that I don't dislike. Furthermore, since I avoid scented stuff, lime scent never even crossed my radar. So this thread has made me consider trying some.
    Thanks for the recommendations.
