Well I had my first go with tabac tonight. I have to say, this is my favorite shaving soap I have ever used! Now I have not used that many but the shave was great with my fridour, and the lather is nice and full of cushion and is slick to boot. I have used Mama Bears and Tryphon as well as Conk and williams, but this one takes the cake. The scent is not great. But I don't mind it and the shave I got from the soap was much nicer than the last shave with the fridour I had which was with Williams and Proraso cream.

Now I am awaiting the arrival of a mug that will actually fit the soap. I had to cram it into a little soap dish but the Burts bees mug I ordered,(like the one in Lynn's video) should do the trick!

I also need to figure out what I am going to do with a practically full 500 ml tube of proraso cream!! I guess I am headed to the Classifieds.
