What was your first artisan soap?

[walklikeaduck]

Mine was Razorock XXX; was interested in what other shavers have purchased for their first artisan soap.

 

[Snooze]

Mine was PAA "Otra" with matching splash. Opened my eyes to the world of scents available - had been using Proraso white, red and green for years!!

Shaver Heaven Peppermint Plus. Shattered I'll probably never get one of @Anthony's soaps again...

How are we defining artisan soaps? My first soap was MWF but I'm not sure that counts.

Acqua Di parma

Considering where it is made, I would consider it artisan.

For me, it was Shaver Heaven - Hot Buttered Rum. I miss that soap.

One must never give up hope! Who knows, maybe he'll be back someday, or whip up a few special batches for certain vendors from time-to-time.

Wow, I expected a more "corporate" operation, interesting...

Hear hear !! Or our P&C "one off" Movember soap ... fingers crossed

Thanks gents. We're honoured to have introduced so many of you to wet shaving through our soaps.

Our hope is to return in the not so distant future (however nothing is in concrete at this stage). We'll just have to see how things pan out.

We've learnt a lot over the past 2 years and hope that we can put that knowledge to better use next time around (if there is one).

Thanks again guys!

Shaver Heaven Oak Vanilla & can't remember the soap from Shaver Heaven something coffee ??

Off the top of my head I think PAA CAD, Gondolier and Caties Bubbles La Piment de la Vie were my first artisan soaps.

The CAD and the LPV are still amongst my favourite scents and both brands are solid performers as well.

First ever soap order was 8 from Shaver Heaven

O yes, Shaver Heaven green tobacco smells amazing! Unfortunately I was too late to grab the last tub from a local vendor here in SA but at least they still have a few other scents like summer breeze available.

My first was River Valley Trading "Durban Bay Rum".

Nothing wrong with that at all!
