    Of the 40 soaps in my rotation, I am always most impressed with the masses of rich creamy lather I get from Razoroc soaps. I will definately restock these soaps (if the need ever arises).

    Second and third, Cella an Proraso they lather up easely but they not so creamy as MB
    I too really like Mama Bear's soaps. Over on B&B, there was a long string about soaps guys DID NOT like. MB and "melt and pour" soaps in general made most poster's lists. Not sure what they did like, but everyone has their opinion.

    My only problem with MB is that 4 oz. last so long I have a few more years before I will use them up.

    BTW - The face in my avatar is lathered with MB's Beau Brummel

    Shave on!!

    I'll second this. I thought Tabac couldn't be beaten, until I tried Fitjar Fjellheim. My new favourite, without a doubt.

    Cella and Razoroc both make thick creamy lather and smell great. Arko makes great lather but smells awful. MWF has been very average, it smells nice but I don't understand all the hype.

    There are lots left for me to try. Proraso almost lathers itself but it seems thin and weak compared to the MWF I have been using. I see now the hype for MWF might just come from beginners like me. Looks like some Razoroc is in my future
