Mama Bears soaps are generally strongly scented. She has any type of scent you want, so pick a manly one and have at it.

Whatever soap or cream with a strong smell, that smell just doesn't seem to last very long after the shave is over.

TOBS sandalwood is a strong smell and hangs around on me. Tabac of course has a strong scent too for a while though doesn't stick around on me which I prefer with any cream/soap.

i have been using evelyn and crabtree soap, for years and i guess i am satisfied, i just started creams,CO bigalow, AOS sandalwood, etc. never thought about them,till lately
i am thinking on tabac at some point , i was reading Green pond has a good smell, but they never return emails

+1 for Tabac. Also, Old Spice soap and Art of Shaving Sandalwood cream.

TOBS Sandalwood cream, Tabac and irisch moos are all some of the best choices when it comes to strong scented creams or soaps but understand no soap or cream has any real lasting power. The ones mentioned should hang around for a half hour at best and its only by implementing a strong aftershave or EDT that you will enhance the fragrance or get better longevity.

Floris No.89. A very good soap too.

Agree on Tabac, however DR Harris Arlington is strong smelling to me and of course there is Cella.

Sooner or later someone will nominate *rko

Art Of Shaving Sandalwood is strong to my nose and lingers. I would also say Taylor Of Old Bond Street: Jermyn St. Both of these have strong "colonge like" fregrance if you ask me. I personally don't consider Tabac to be that strong of a scent, but I only own the shave stick, not the bowl.

Arko

**G3rry** · 02-15-2012, 11:14 AM

Gotta love the Arko!!!

**rockviper** · 02-15-2012, 11:15 AM

Mama Bear's Dragon's Blood is not for the faint of heart.

Maybe Klar Kabinett... Incredibly strong, a and if you can wear the horribly putrid scent of decaying roses, you're more of a man than me.

Ralph Lauren Safari shave soap, its discontinued but can still be found through online vendors and occasionally on the BST.

Leathers and spice could well descirbe C&E Sienna. They themselves call it: "A masculine blend of leather, citrus and spice - with just a hint of fire and herbs." I really enjoy the scent of both Sienna and Nomad.
