My grandfather used Tabac products religiously and I inherited some when he died. At the time being around 17 I had no idea what shaving soap or a stick was and never used those items. I love the scent and recently found a store locally that sells Tabac products. I was wondering if their shaving products would be good for anything other than nostalgia? Anyone used this stuff?
Search around for Tabac and you'll find it's one of the best soaps. I love mine almost more than my MWF! :p
I love the soap it is almost never off the top of the sink i use it 2-3 times a week
I have the cream and love the stuff! SWMBO really likes it as well :)
I also use tabac and its my favoite of all the soaps I have.
Another big fan here, soap, deodorant, aftershave, the lot. Sometimes I go a bit overboard with it but I love it, good job my wife likes it as well!
The scent is very much love-it-or-leave-it, which is fine by me as I happen to love it :D As a bonus, so does my wife. Great performance too, highly recommended.
It's important that SWMBO loves the scent of Tabac. What you like is irrelevant in this area, because it has a very strong significant smell.
My SWMBO loves it, which means I love it. Also, it really is a top performing soap. It's incredible.
Absolutely! I just found out that my wife has apparently developed an allergy to my beloved Spanish Leather aftershave :(. I'm still not sure if I should get rid or limit contact with her for 1/2 hour after using it :wQuote:

That's a funny thing about the SWMBO approval, my SWMBO likes only Burberry Eau de Toilet; none of the other scents (T&H Trafalgar, Clubman, Floïd, Dominica Bay Rum) appeal to her. It would be interesting to post a thread asking for the favourite SWMBO'd scent/s, after all, I don't want to attract YOU guys, I want to attract, well, She Who Must Be Obeyeds....
Thats true Carl, but you also have to take into account what you enjoy sometimes as well. My wife isn't keen on certain things until she gets used to it, then all of a sudden she's asking what I'm wearing in a good way when she originally turned her nose up at it. Used to be I could only wear Mandom when I was going out to the woods for the weekend felling trees with my double bit axe, riding horses with no saddle and catching trout with my bare hands. Now she enjoys it in the house when I have it on. If your good lady finds something appauling put it away by all means but don't give up on the ones you really enjoy. It just might grow on her!
Tabac is definately one of those scents your other half needs to enjoy though as Ryan pointed out. It's potent stuff(in a good way to some of us).
I've been using Tabac nearly exclusively for a few months now. I works well.
Gentlemen:
I have used the Tabac soap for a number of years, and will continue to do so. It is a superb soap. The fragrance is controversial: some love it and, well, some not. The aftershave gave me a headache, so I retired it.
I love Tabac soap and aftershave. I don't really get the controversy over the smell... what's not to like? :D
Too true. Is there a lot of trout in the Northhampton waterways these days?Quote:

To be honest there's not even a lot of water left in Northampton right now due to no rain in the last year. It's currently a record low. I was concerned after seeing the local resevoir last year but it's only starting to hit the news now.Quote:

The after shave when I first cracked open a new bottle had a stronger smell then I did after a few weeks of use.
