then you'll really like:
My first, and second soap pucks were from Col Conk(Bay Rum is newest) and I've really liked them so far. Just was wondering what you would recommend I add to my collection for something different!

If you're in the US (or don't mind paying thru the nose for int'l shipping, like me), then DEFINITELY check out HoneyBee, Mama Bears or Pirate's Cove.
Those soaps are just the best, and all have incredible scents. Great slip and protection, and very moisturising.
If you like Conk's Bay Rum, then I highly recommend Tom's (the owner of Pirate Cove) Bay Rum & Lime (he also does it with Ginger, or plain Bay Rum).
These are the most strongly scented soaps I've ever tried - I pity the fools with sensitive skin, they really are missing out on the best damn wake up shave ever.
I've got the Col. Conk Bay Rum soap, and I think it's very good, especially for the price. For just a little bit more though, I think the Ogallala soaps are excellent. A slicker soap with even more cushion. I have the "Bay Rum, Sage & Cedar" soap and the next time I place an order for blades or something, I'll definitely be ordering another, plus some of the regular Bay Rum, and maybe some of the Special Reserve cologne. I love me some Bay Rum.

I have a puck of Col Conk Bay Rum as well. Although it's the only puck I have besides VDH deluxe, I think it's a tad strong for my liking. It's not a bad scent by any means, but I'd rather try a few other soaps. Maybe some "natural" scents like lavender and whatnot. I just don't want to buy way too much stuff that I'll never finish. To each his own though!

Just to touch on the part about never finishing. I assume you mean the shave soap. If that's the case instead of just leaving it around unused, why not just use it in the shower? After all its still soap, and that'll take care of the used puck, :thumbup1: and you'll smell like you shaved your entire body. Just kidding on that entire body bit. :laugh:

I got the Col. Conk Bay Rum back in December and have been using it in my rotation - I really like it and once I use it up (it has a ways to go), I'm considering trying out the Ogallala.
I have 2 shave sticks from qedusa.com. Great stuff:thumbup1:

Conk's Bay Rum was the first soap I ever tried and I really like the scent, but since I tried the Ogallala Bay Rum & Sandlewood shave stick, it has become my go to soap. I love Ogallala. I am quickly becoming a huge Bay Rum fan.
