Just shaved with Tabac and wanted to give my $0.02
Scent: Old lady
Water: Moderately hard
Lather: Easy to generate. Creamy, but not thick. Very quick to dry. I'm decently fast with a DE and the lather was already dissipating.
Performance: Protection was decent for the equipment I was using. Cushion was average (a thicker lather would have been nicer). Slickness was average.
Post shave feel: It took forever to wash it all off. Didn't feel overly dry, nor did my face feel all that moisturized either. About average.
Equipment used: Gillette SuperSpeed w/Feather blade (second shave in)
Conclusion: I don't like the scent at all, and the lather was not thick enough nor conditioning enough to last through one shave. There was plenty of lather left in the brush, but my face was already getting dry. It was enough to give a decent shave with a feather, but I've had better soaps. Compared to artisan soaps, I don't like how there are a lot of ingredients in the soap that have no business doing on my face. Just my personal preference.
