I'll start it off with some soap that are artisan made...

First a brand I really like/love CBL soaps : Roasted oatmeal stout.. My son made a joke photo a long time ago when he was little where he picked up a refill puck ( not in a bowl ) and pretended to take a bite out of it as it smells like an oatmeal cookie...

Any of this makers soaps though work well and most smell fantastic...

I have settled on Tabac and Palmolive shave sticks. As I prefer to face lather. So I am a very boring soap user.

Actually a boring shave setup all round nowadays.

I have to confess that I am a very boring soap user as well. My preferred shaving soap is Arko shave sticks, as I am satisfied with its performance, as well as liking the scent quite a bit.
 
I like a variety of different soaps myself and am known to also sometimes break out a stick of.....

I have Not tried the original MWF before I don;t think. I have tried the New non tallow formula though..
 
Im a big fan of The Goodfellas'smile (TGS) range of tallow and non tallow soaps.
Great quality and reasonably priced here are two my fav's. (both non tallow)
Cheers.

Mine was Old Spice but seeing SOTD photos on P&C by a member @Gargravarr has led me down the vintage Yardley trail, currently using one and have one (fully sealed 1950’s) to use next. Also coming on January the 4th, 2 Jack Jarvis soaps from Thailand the Cadwgawn and Thai Ginger Zest.

Yardley bastard :cautious:

I'm leaning towards Woolly Wash Soapery (Australian made) from etsy.com

Shear (unscented) this soap is almost 100% perfect, just like Mitchell's Wool Fat ;)🥃

no particular favourite, as I have many, many soaps/artisans that I adore, but Los Jabones De Joserra is a clear winner when it comes to how many.. 17 of his soaps as of my last count..
 
Of the 316 shaves I have logged for 2025 to date, the most (by a good distance) were with one of Manuel's superb creations: 101. I can't see that changing in 2026. This was his 2025 LE soap.
