Woods of Windsor shaving soap?

[Spirit_of_76]

Just curious if anyone has tried the Woods of Windsor shave soap. I've never seen any discussion of it on the boards and would like to hear from anyone who has tried it. Is it worth a purchase or not?
Regards,

I have it and use it on ocasion.. It is not a very good soap.. I use it mainly as super-lather base..

The scent is on the other hand magnificent - I guess thats the reason I still use it.. But as I said not a good soap.. Not really worth buying..

It doesnt really lather, you get watery foam but no more.. and if you try to apply that to your face it dissapears within seconds..

Its a shame with the scent but IMHO dont buy it - youll be dissapointed..

Thanks for letting me know it's not up to par. That's one to strike off the acquisitions list (thank God.)

Glad to be of assistance.. I have collected some 50+ shaving soaps, so I have tried a few :D

Perhaps you could grace us with a review, in the review section, Thomas.

Even if soaps and such are awful, reviews can be helpful.
