    One problem with all shave soaps and creams is the scent. It is a subjective thing and so some like it and some don't. I find Mecca Root shave cream has a clean fresh scent and not the least offensive. OTH other might find the opposite. Another one that seems to really typify this is Arko, which I like and others don't. When getting a new soap for the first time that is a risk you have to take.

    As far as making a shave soap produce a good lather, that could take some experimenting to find the best way. They are all a bit different in that respect too. The type of water that you have makes a difference too. Ours happens to be very good which makes things easier.

    Like cpcohen 1945 said, stop by the store and ask for a sample. They will squirt a good amount into a little tub for you to take home and give it a go. I did that once while in San Francisco for the night. I forgot to take a shave stick, so I went to the Body Shop, which was around the courner from my hotel, and got a sample for the next morning's shave. It is good stuff.
