First off I love the CK - 6 Base, need to order few more Scents.

Anyone have favorite?

I like Bay Rum, Citrus, Sandalwood, Barber shop, Talc, but open to suggestion of you favorites.
 
I personally don't own any of their products, that includes hardware or software. I guess I'm biased, I hang out in the mainstream stuff.

What is it you do not like about CK-6? I find Razor Emporium's Hose Soap Vegan is very similar to CK-6. If I blind tested both CK-6 Lather UP Much Faster. Both Product don't take much product to make Super Lather.
 
The ck base is top tier. Up there with B&M, ethos, dns wholly Kaw. They do a fantastic job on their homages. What I really like is the attention to quality AFSs. The glass bottle, cap, & flow structure are top notch. And, he does not scrumptious on scent. They perform like colognes. Great biz. Great line up. MdC, SV, and CK6 are the best non tallow pux out there.

PAA is like Stirling in that they have so many Scent & Seasonal Scents one need exercise restrain.
 
PAA has so many scents, and then there are the seasonal releases.

Waiting for cooler weather to order a few more. So shipment is safe from Arizona extreme HEAT!

PAA & Razor Emporium has a new collaboration. I want only available at Razor Emporium. I want.

If I was to choose ONE Forever Soap it would be CK-6.

Little Dab makes Big Lather.

Easy to work with.

So many choices of Scents

Can't say nothing bad about PAA, Eric Hodges, aka Douglas Smythe the PAA GURU GUY.
 
CK-6 is truly one of the best bases out there.
Tons of scents. I probably have 15-20 currently.
I really like this refreshing true barbershop fougere... Doppelganger Green Label.
Paco Rabanne Pour Homme dupe.

Also, Doppelganger Plum is excellent for the cooler weather coming up (but could be used as a night scent in warmer months, I suppose).
It's a dupe of Tom Ford Plum Japonais. Scent Profile: Cinnamon, Saffron, Japanese Plum, Plum Blossom, Immortelle, Liquor, Camellia, Cypress, Smokey Oud, Amber, Benzoin, Fir, Vanilla

Gents, are you able to comment on how it compares to Deton-8 (Stirling's dupe of Spicebomb)??
Tommy, great to be back on the same forum as you!

Haven’t tried Denton-8. I’m a big fan of the Cube preshave and got one of those in the same scent. Also got the star jelly - it’s the only scent I’ve done that with and makes for a really nice shave experience.
