    How Dr. Harris compare to Tabac?

    Top 5 as of today:

    Tabac
    MdC
    Mike's NS Lemon grass/Eucaliptus
    Cella (best bang for the buck)
    Jabonman Vetiver (similar performance to MdC but with a more interesting scent for me)

    I have a couple of the TOBS soaps and they are pretty good stuff.
    That said, compared to a few of the top names out there like MdC, C&S and others, they are a notch or two below.
    IMHO that is

    Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

    TOBS is a great soap. I have yet to use some of the "top tier" soaps but I would put TOBS a notch or two above Proraso. I have some grapefruit that a friend gave me and I love the scent as well.

    Any fragrance preference for them?

    The price seems right. And I am yet to try a soap. I am a cream fan! Currently have the Prorasso red one. But it dries up pretty quickly on the face!

    My preferences are:

    Anything that says TOBS is number 1.
    Old Spice Vintage soap
    tabac (cream or soap)
    mama bears lemon
    Ogallala Bay Rum Soap (Sandalwood is my fav flavor)

    I have a collection of around 20, a pretty good variety of soaps and creams, and some like RazoRock that could qualify as either/or/both... I love them all, and they all bring different qualities to the shave.

    I must also admit, that with my new G20 Scuttle from Georgetown Pottery, I don't care what I put in it, it comes out great!

    Have fun!

    I like Tabac better than DR Harris, but so far there isn't anything else I tried that I like more than Tabac.
