Not by meI'm sure this has something to do with fragrance oils in number 2. Too many people are saying its performance is slightly lacking for it to be a coincidence!

Thats very nice of you. I'll PM you nowPm me your address and I'll pass on some of the current sample to test out.
Ah thats ashame! But dont worry you've been very good to me already.Well I got around to sample #1 and lathered up as usual, the scent on this was a bit more soapy but I still can't lather it to the level the other guys seem to. Everybody seems to have made conclusions but think I need a few more shaves and more goes with both samples before I cast my final verdict. @Stuart wish I'd seen your post before I went to the postoffice today as I could have included half of my samples in your mailing.

Thanks I shall put my 2pence worth of info in when ive tried the soapPosted
Enjoy and please share you thoughts.
Well, I can't resist but have my say. Thanks Nick for those.
I don't have an awful lot of experience which is why I didn't want to waste a sample.
I have mainly used Wickhams Super soap TOBS Soap & MWF & Floris soap. So these are my comparisons.
I have soft water.
I was going to wait until I had tried both samples a few times before I reported back.
But I just can't resist. I have only used the number 1 sample so far.
And that only once.
I normally soak my boar brush while showering. Squeeze and shake dry.
Load. Then face lather adding water as I go.
It isn't as objective as bowl lathering, but this is what i know.
It was a pleasure to use. I thought it really stood out as a good soap.
Doing exactly what I normally do, it loaded easily and lathered quickly.
I had a thick, creamy, ‘slidey' lather. Gave what I think of as a high quality lather.
It seems very forgiving if that makes sense?
Like the range it is happy with is pretty wide.
It was happy when relatively dry and thick, but also with a bit more water still very happy.
Post shave feels almost as good as anything else I have tried.
I would have to go back to the others to compare to say about that better..
Also, it seemed to create more lather than other soaps with the same effort.
I could happily have done four passes.
Well done Sir, I am impressed.
Unfortunately the scent isn't to my liking.
I think it might have one thing that I am not keen on.
It isn't like anything else I have smelled before.
But like I say, my experiences are very limited.
Thanks for doing this though, excellent.
I will have some off you of the next scent option for sure.
I was going to pass this on, but I am not sure that I want to......
I sent all of the unscented out I'm afraid. One of the guys may have some and be able to pass it on?I know i'm late to the party, do you happen to have an unscented version with and without lanolin?
Iv'e got some unscented OSP with Lanolin, I can split some. PM me your address.I know i'm late to the party, do you happen to have an unscented version with and without lanolin?
