For me a few days over 5 months in 2020. Did a puck in two parts in 2013.
My Guess... 3017

Mine was a year but I shave every other day and take vacations off. So probably about the same as you. 5-6 months of daily.
I have one puck of Pre de Provence and two pucks of Pre de Provence 63 in my backlog. That ought to be good for 18 months!
From my logs...... It's not PdP, but still....
May.15.2017 - Apr.29.2019.....P.160 Tipo Morbido (650g).... 23.5 months!!

After 98 shaves my vintage puck of Williams has finally developed a small hole in it.
I have to put a temporary hold on 3017ing La Toja. I've got about 1/4 of the tube left. I was visiting some friends and I forgot my Dopp kit at their house. I won't get back there again for a couple months so I decided to start up a fresh 3017 effort and I'll circle back and kill off La Toja in a few months.
First shave yesterday with a new puck of Haslinger Schafmilch (veggie).....
Unwrapped it and dropped it in my Proraso Mug......
Soaked the big Omega boar.....about 30 seconds of swirling and my cup runneth over. Its a bit airy in this pic but I got it sorted out pretty quickly. So La Toja is an excellent cream.....and it cannot touch Haslinger in any performance catagory. Not even close.
Last bits of my Ariana & Evans K2e. There is a bigger chunk left on the side and few small ones on the bottom, so I expect to get two more shaves out of it.
I weighed my vintage Williams Barber's Bar soap again yesterday. Over the last 8 shaves I averaged 1.0 g of soap per shave. At this rate I may finish it off before June.
I have a puck of PdP that I'm saving for my 63rd birthday. Yeah, I know it's corny. I plan to use it with MacDuff's Birth of the Cool aftershave and/or Zingari The Soloist balm. It should be a good time.
I plan to go with the SV 70th Anniversary soap and splash set seven years later
Reporting a kill. Used exclusively from mid October last year until yesterday.
A cheap, easily available splash. Works alright but the scent is too strong for me and it lingers for a while after use.
Moving onto my last bottle of Floid. This is one of my favourites and should last the rest of the year.

I am a fan of the floid. I managed to grab a few bottles and will be sad when I finally run out. I 3017'd a bottle of blue and it lasted 882 days... I think they last longer due to being 400ml and the fact that I use the squeeze bulb and that seems to use about half the amount compared to splashing a bit onto my hand.
In an semi unrelated note Pinaid Clubman looks good in an empty Floid bottle instead of the plastic one it came in.
[edit:] and in a feeble attempt to keep this more or less on topic.. Today was shave 93 for my puck of Tabac. It is now 32.2 grams lighter than when I started to at least the it is no longer getting heavier than when I started.

That a solid kill. For me AS splashes take forever to finish off.

...but this one IS cracked.
Not complaining but would you mind awfully posting this kill to the aftershave 3017 thread aswell Aftershave 3017 Challenge - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/aftershave-3017-challenge.470568/post-7734875 It is one of the loneliest threads on the forum and most people don't even know it exists. It would be great if we could get it going, it's just that it takes so long to kill anything it can go months without a single post
And by the way congratulations, it isn't an everyday occurrence to 3017 an aftershave

I finally holed my Barbaccio tonight! I'm not doing badly as this will be my third kill of the year.
Will do Mike.
Starting in March I broke out my Simpson Rover Synthetic. I generally don’t like this brush, as it suffers from the same problem the original Chubby 2 synths had, low loft and too dense. Good for painting when face lathering, but not a lot of fun to use.
So I put about 3 weeks into Sartorial with it, saw a significant impact on the soap and then moved to the CH2 synthetic at the beginning of April. I’ve since broken through the bottom and making steady progress to a finish. I’ll stick with this brush until I’m done, as I’m tired of the soap (though performance has been very good).
I doubt it will make it to May, so I’m going to have to pick my next soap soon. I’d like to crowdsource this one, as I have just 3 3017 soaps left:
Cade
Arlington
Wrisley Saddle Club
What say you, 3017ers?

I'd also vote for Arlington. I love the scent and the cream. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the soap before they get away from tallow.
