It's very nice!
Looking for something cheap, but surprisingly effective

I don't think you need to spend a lot to get an excellent shave
I agree. What other soaps have you tried so far?

Lea sticks, La Toja, Arco, Proraso, TOBS, Palmolive (stick and cream) MWF, OSP and a few others that I can't remember. There are a couple in this thread that I'd like to give a spin. OSP Dark Matter is probably going on my Xmas list as a stocking filler 
The new Proraso Super Formula is very good. You could get the 3 pack of these soaps along with a 3P soap from Labarbiera with change from £20. That should give some variety and good shaves for a while.Lea sticks, La Toja, Arco, Proraso, TOBS, Palmolive (stick and cream) MWF, OSP and a few others that I can't remember.

3P is my bargain gem. I need to regularly stop myself from trying to stockpile it.

I have recently tried a couple of the 'Haslinger' soaps - currently £6.95 from Amazon. Small pucks but provide an amazing lather with very little effort. There are a few different ones, I would give you the names of the ones I have but my German is not up to it (made in Austria). Definitely worth a try.

I am a fan of Cella, I don't know how other people use it but I take a teaspoonful out of the tub into a small ceramic dish and it lasts and lasts, I forget the cost, perhaps around £7 but it could last over a year and produces a rich lather.
I still have a few sticks of Palmolive, I am happy that I future proofed a supply a few years ago on one of the many rumours of production stopping.
