it depends on what you're going for. i love the menthol in soaps and creams. try getting proraso or omega soap if you want that type of feeling.
if you're looking for something else, there are plenty of reviews and threads on an array of soap. or just try something new and post your own review! good luck!Last edited by hcintineo; 05-08-2011 at 10:00 PM. Reason: spelling

+1, all solid. Their own soaps are good and the proraso is another safe bet.

I don't know what you've got, but SRD's Lime is great, as is the Vanilla Bourbon. Their Sandalwood is top notch too...Be advised, Proraso has Eucalyptus oil, it's mentholated. I personally don't care for Methol, but it is a great cream/soap...

I've never tried SRD's own soaps, but from wht they carry I could definitely recommend Mitchell's Wool Fat, Tabac, Truefitt & Hill, DR Harris and a whole host of others

I should have mentioned that I already have proraso. First I've used so I don't have anything besides canned stuff to compare to. Keep the recommendations coming!

if you already have the regular proraso, go with the proraso with aloe and green tea. proraso is great stuff for the price and this soap will be milder. then move on from there.

+1 on the previous advice. I have purchased SRD's own shaving soaps in the past. The Opus X has a great tobacco fragrance.
I've heard great things about the Bulgarian Rose too. Try it--if you like a rose scent."Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." Mark Twain

I have bought two of their own soaps, the Bulgarian Rose and the Vanilla.
Both great performers with great scents.
If the Bulgarian Rose is back in stock, I would by that. It is absolutely great!Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....
