Dr. Jon's is on my short list of soaps to try during the restock period after the yearly. I've heard some good things!
Really like this soap a lot. Also, Soap Commander has a few. Inspiration is a sweet kind of citrus scent. Vision sounds like it might be up your alley Citrus and Pineapple among other things. Mike's Lime is very lime IMO. Also, Soapy Bathman. Have not tried them but read good things about their Banana.
How about that Tomato soap. I mean since we are on fruits. I figure the Banana is okay even though it's a berry.
I like lime scented soap.
The ones I have tried:
RR Don Marco has a wonderful, sweet, creamy orange scent.
Maggard orange menthol is a nice true orange
Mike's orange, cedar, and pepper is another nice orange
Catie's Bubbles Fouet L'Orange is a sweet fruity scent with some orange to it.
Strop Shoppe Russian Tea is a nice spiced orange that it not heavy on clove.
Catie's Bubbles Le Verte Orange is really a green orange rind with floral.
I have some Mystic Waters orange vanilla that smells quite nice but I have not yet tried it. I also have a sample of Maggard lime that smells like green lifesaver to me, maybe more refined than that, that I have not yet used.
My favorite scent of these is the Don Marco, while I get the best performance from the Catie's Bubbles.

Soap Commander Respect, Dr. Jon's Hydra, and RazoRock Essential Oil of Lime. All wonderful.
Soap Smooth (Seifenglatt) Toulouse - Mango, with green tea and menthol. I LOVE this scent and soap.
I am a pre-shower shaver, so any soap or cream I use will wash off. For that and other reasons, my soap is Arko. Still, I can see where fruity scents can be something to like, especially in this season. The aroma is a large part of the shave experience.
there are so many great vendors that have fruity scents. I am also quite fond of Polynesian Red from TSD. Gingers Garden has quite a few fruity ones as well.
Mickey Lee's new Kokomo shaving soap is quite fruity, it reminds me of these:
Picked up dr. Jon's Hydra and Arctic Hydra before my restraint and finally got around to trying the arctic.
definitely fruity. I'll probably restock both once they are gone.

Dr Johns Hydra is getting a lot of love.
Caties Bubbles Saturday Morning
Love that soap!!! Mine has the old name, "boules fruite" but the new name fits better I think.
It's more like a cream to be honest. But I do like it!!! Still have the original lined up but the arctic Hydra was awesome!!
Mickey Lee Soapworks Paradise Frost has a perfectly light grapefruit peel scent, that's notably un-sweet. Slightly earthy, with very subtle botanical notes underneath. A touch of menthol cools without the freeze.
Combined with great performance, it's a top contender for my current summer favorite.
