Utopian gave me a few slivers of Tabac to try and I made the mistake of letting my wife smell it as is. She said it smelled exactly like a cross between Lysol spray (the old/original scent) and cheap Aqua Net hairspray. Alas, to keep the peace, I didn't use it! I should NOT have let her smell it until I actually lathered with it since I'm sure the smell changes dramatically and improves dramatically once it's used.

I love Tabac, but quite literally can't stand the scent. Mixed as lather, or straight from the puck, the stuff is just nasty. But it works so well that I gag my way through both head and face shaves with it. Supposedly, Irish Moos is the same stuff but with a more agreeable scent. I have yet to get my hands on it, though.

Tabac is the only soap that will allow me to go against the grain on back-to-back shave days on my face, as well as allowing me to shave the noggin more than once every few days.

I really look forward to letting the face get to two day's growth so I can use something other than Tabac to shave with. I have *never* smelled a nastier toiletry product.
