Tabac Original By Maurer & Wirtz For Men. Shaving Soap Bowl 4.4 Ounces

smooth, slick, protecting, almost instant & effortless lather. lather is very creamy, but not excessively stout. seems to lather instantly in either soft or hard water. that scent though. rose + gardenia + dirt. is there a tabacco scent? maybe if tobacco means wet tobacco in a pouch, then maybe, possibly, maybe not. personally i think it smells pretty good, just, not what i call a current rendition of masculine. the warden does not like it though. this is a champion shave though. even if i shave every day, i think this bowl might last about 3 years.

If you want performance in your shave soap, look no further. A small amount of product creates mounds of creamy, slick lather that allows for touch-ups without reapplication. With Tabac, my razor effortlessly mows down hair with no tugging or irritation whatsoever, and leaves my skin looking and feeling healthy. I think the discussion surrounding Tabac’s fragrance is overblown, as it is very mild in lather form. To me, it smells of bar soap in the vein of Safeguard or Ivory, with hints of sweet tobacco leaf peeking through from time to time. All that is to say that it simply smells clean. While the price may give prospective buyers pause, the quality and performance of this soap renders any such concerns moot. It’s easily in my top three.

I know the price seems high but, its easy to lather, protects your skin and personally it brings back memories of simpler times. This is a triple milled soap that will easily last 6 months with daily use, and I happen to like the White Ceramic bowl and cover. BE FOREWARNED YOULL EITHER LOVE OR HATE THE AROMA, BUT IT LATHERS GREAT, MY MAINSTAY SOAP !!!

I was skeptical at first, but thought Id give Tabac a try, since many people seem to like it so much. Wow this is good stuff. Lather explodes on your face like crazy. Ive also heard others complain about the scent. I dont know what theyre talking about. It has a very pleasant smell. And it works 10x better than other brands that cost 2 or 3 times as much. This will definitely be a major part of my rotation. I may even exclusively use Tabac--its that good. If youre on the fence, get a badger brush and give this one a try.

It smells nice and the glass bowl is very sturdy. It survived being shipped by Amazon with no padding or packaging materials in the box.

Great shave soap, lubricates, smooth shave and and great aroma. Rinses clean!

Great and easy lather by far one of the best. Amazing scent, strong but not over done. Classic robust spicy tobacco with a hint of rose.

Awesome classic sent and a top performer

In my opinion, the scent is pleasing and the lather is fairly rich. I even bought a new brush to use with it (I already owned a brush).

Top of the heap tallow based shaving soap. Really nice on face.
