What brand of soap do you own the most of?

I just Google WSP. Now I know. I never heard of them before.

La Toja and Cade, I think. Somehow I acquired 3 pucks of Cade since I finished one a couple years ago. The La Toja stockpile was the result of a trip to España.

Phoenix & Beau, followed by DR Harris, followed by Barrister & Mann.

Barrister & Mann

Heard a rumour awhile back that the Palmolive stick was to be discontinued in the UK. Only when I'd relieved my local supermarket of a dozen sticks did I discover it to be untrue. Still, at 49 pence a stick it hardly broke the bank.

Derby Shaving Sticks - I bought a box of a dozen at a very reasonable price on eBay

12 Sticks La Toja
3 Sticks Arko
3 Pucks Cade
2 Pucks Haslinger Schafmilch
2 Pucks Tabac
3 Tubes C.O. Bigelow
4 Tubes Kiss My Face

La Toja here.

Through the Fire Fine Craft: 7 soaps + 1 duplicate

---

The rest are
Mama Bear: 4
Dr. Jon's: 2
Beaver Woodwright: 1
Dapper Dragon: 1

If I had the funds, I'd buy out the whole stock from all of these guys - the scents are unbelievably good and the artisans themselves are really pleasant people.

Arko: about 1kg
RR: 3 different scents

I am enjoying this thread and the 'one artisan, one factory' thread.

It seems a bit odd that in the 1A,1F thread, Stirling for example comes up a LOT, but but in this thread Stirling doesn't appear that often. That would seem to imply that we don't have the most soaps of the manufacturers we like best!

Of course their can be many explanations for the discrepancy, but I expected to see a closer correspondence between brands in these two threads.

Cheers, Steve

Soap Commander. I have tons.

Currently it is :
1. Mama Bear ... 5 scents
2. Honeybee .... 4 scents
3. P.160 (original stuff) ... both Tipo Morbido and Tipo Duro

2/3 of the original B&B Sue Trefecta and both P.160s isn't too bad for my top 3 stockpile.
BTW, I also have a SCS Sandalwood puck, completing the 3-Sue's collection.

This thread is suppose to be the soap you have the most of in different scents. If you had 12 sticks of Arko and 3 sticks of Mystic Water in different scents then MW would be your winner.

Can you tell me more about this collection? I have a few Mama Bear scents and I love them but I wonder if I'm missing out on some holy grail soaps from her inventory.

The Three Sue's of B&B soap legend are [MENTION=673]Mama Bear[/MENTION], Saint Charles Shave ( [MENTION=4193]Wendy[/MENTION] , Sue's daughter), and Honeybee Soaps. All make excellent products.

When it comes to Mama Bear scents, pick what you like and enjoy! They all provide the same great performance for me, and I have especially enjoyed Lemon Rose, Rose, Sandalwood, Ye Olde Barbershoppe, Bay Rum, Winter Grapefruit (no longer made), and of course, Dragon's Blood.

I wasn't aware of the latter two vendors. I have about a million artisan soaps on my list that I want to try and now I've just added two more artisans.

Saint Charles Shave was Sue Moore. It is in her honour that we annually hold the Saint Sue auction. You can read about her story in her own words here. Wendy is her daughter and has carried on the family business and remains an important part of B&B to this day.

Neither of the three Sue's are related to each other. It's just coincidence that all were named Sue.
