I have now used this soap for the past 4 mornings with 3 different straights over that time performing face lathers with the Simpson Berkeley badger..
This soap is "right up there" when compared to what I have previously tried, maybe not scent wise (great scent though I like them, "In ya face") but for lather it is sooooo good. Slick, full, slick, stays moist, slick ... ... ... oh yeah; did I mention slick? Great aid to my straight shaves. Anthony describes it thus:

The scent.
Well I don't know about all that scents that @Anthony lists but opening the tub first time a very pleasant scent, strong without being overpowering. You won't be disappointed. A kind of manly, bush-type scent but a sweet scent without being all girly, flower-type sweet. My wife loved the scent and said, "This soap is something a man shaves with". I'm not going to argue.
The lather.
The lather however is the real standout for this soap. Loaded the badger in 15-20 seconds and started face lathering. STAND BACK. The resultant lather just kept growing & growing & growing & growing & growing .... ... ... you get the point, I almost had to step outside the bathroom to make room for it. The quality of this lather is brilliant. THIS is what a shave soap should be. A standout success in this aspect. And slick; the straight just glides.
Overall.
Yes. Get onto the Shaver Heaven website and order some, get a sample from somebody else on this form or steal some (not from my house please), just get some.
