After a week or two you will notice that the soap's scent will begin to mellow a bit and become even more sophisticated. That's when the shaves are REALLY good.

The Tabac scent becomes more and more tolerable and tame as the puck gets used.

Just shaved and rotated to an old favorite: Col. Conk glycerine Lime...the soap that started it all. I started with the Colonel about 10 years ago. Of course I ended up with a grade A shave, but.....I didn't like it as much as the Tabac!

Hehe, I may have to retire the puck to hand soap duty as my shaving supply area is getting cluttered!
