Honeybee sue coconut soap is very good. Great scent, nice shaving soap that has shea butter and clay added for skincare and slickness.

Some folks like the trumpers coconut oil soap, but it didn't impress me too much in the shave or scent department.

SCS also has a coconut soap, but I haven't used that one.

Coincidentally, I'm eating chocolate coconut cream cheesecake while reading this.

I'll be looking at the recommendations...Mmmmm, coconut!

Mamabear's Toasted Coconut is good Soap...

Trumpers.

Trumpers is the only coconut soap I've tried. This soap is a high quality top-notch performer. Scent is natural coconut. If you're looking for a heavily scented Hollywood-coconut like suntan oil this isn't it.

Maybe I'll just settle for a piece of chocolate coconut cream cheesecake...

Thanks for the advice y'all

Of course 'best' is pretty subjective. For what do you look for in a soap?

The only coconut soap I have tried is Trumpers and I wasn't to impressed with the scent. It smells nice, but it is very faint and you have to really stick your nice in it to smell it. However, I prefer stronger smelling creams

Hiya,

My personal choice for that scent would be the soap offered by JoAnna at www.theshaveden.com store. It's a medium scented version, with no sweetness or floral notes added. Performance is quite good, and samples are available to try first if you like.

I've used other coconut scented products, but this is the one I order when I run out.

Hope that helps,

Martin

Oh, JoAnna also makes a very nice single note lime soap as well.

Her coconut-lime-verbena is really really nice too.

Agreed. The Trumper's I tried in their sample pack was one of the best creams I've used, the scent was pleasant, but really weak. I never would have guessed coconut if it wasn't labeled, but then I also have a poor sense of smell.

Performance on this was actually very nice, but the Coconut soap sample that I got from TSD smelled god-awful. I actually wonder if there wasn't a problem with the one I got because it smelled more like an Indian incense with coconut added, than actual coconut. I felt like I was rubbing nag-champa all over my face.

Otherwise the company Alba makes a very lovely smelling brushless shaving cream that is heavenly, and they sell them at Whole Foods markets.
