Chris,
I remember your input in one of the MANY Tabac posts saying you did not like the scent. I'll 2nd Max's recommendation of Haslinger Honey, and throw in my own recommendation of L'Occitane. I think L'Occitane rivals Tabac in lather quality and I love the smell.
Here are some links:
Shaving Soap | L'Occitane USA
Haslinger Shaving Soap
And at $10 a pop (without the tubs), it's definitely worth your time and dough to try them out.
I, for one, cannot get behind MWF. I think the lather sucks and the improvement to skin tone is negligible. However, with the hordes of people who love the stuff, I think my negative comments on that front may be ignored. To each his/her own.
Cheers,
Ogie
