AOS: same performance?

**finotti** · 06-23-2011, 06:37 AM

Dear all,

There are lot of good reviews for AOS soaps... So:

Do the different scents of AOS soaps have the same performance?

If your answer is no, which ones have you tries and which one had the best performance?

Thanks,

I own the Lemon and Sandalwood.They seem to me to be the same exact soap with just different scents.

Same soap, different scent. But for me, scent is part of the performance. Don't believe me? Try C&S.

In descending order of preference, I'd rate them sandalwood, lavender, and lemon.

Same soaps with different scents. The creams seem to have a more pleasant smell but the soaps ares still great. AOS Lavender soap and cream are some of my regulars.

I like the Lemon Soap and Lemon & Sandalwood creams.

I did not like the Lavender cream as it says its for sensitive skin, whatever is in it for that I don't like.

I have Lavender and Sandalwood in my rotation and they seem to perform the same. Although I enjoy the lavender more.

The AoS creams do not have tallow in them, do they? I know most creams don't, but I know of some artisan creams that do, so...

Only the soaps have the tallow, and for me, they are absolutely great. I love AOS Sandalwood soap. The cream is also nice, but I much prefer the tallowy-goodness of the soap. Not only does it shave well, but it really makes my skin silky smooth.

Used Sandalwood SS yesterday and Lavender SS today. Same awesome lather. It doesn't get any better than AOS.

Thanks all for the replies!

Since the performance seems to be the same, I need to go to the store and smell some of them to decide. :-)

Best to all,
