Her Dublin Tweed and Lime soaps are very nice. Performance is always stellar, and especially in the case of the DT, the scents are spot on.
Mama Bear: Where to begin?

I recently found out mama bears do samples.. soap shards for $1 each. Now I can try 15 of the soaps!
.
Get 'em while you can. I think I remember a post from Mama Bear herself saying she was discontinuing the samples after January.
+1 right back at you. I also have the Rosemary Mint shave soap and the bath soap. Love the scent.
IIRC, she changed her mind and will continue to offer the samples.
Right now I am using the Spruce Needle and Frankincense EO soaps. Great stuff! The Ye Olde Barbershop is awesome as well!
What does the "members only" tag on Czar's Choice mean? I assume that it's only for the Czardom, but I don't know what that means...
B&B Members. next time I do that I will be more specific.. this was for a pay it forward for Badger and Blade by the Czardom... sorry about that!!!
Ye Olde Barber Shoppe was my favorite until I tried Hinoki Wood. Now, it's tops by far!

Tim, I just bought a tub of that Bacon soap. It smells EXACTLY like a premium, home-smoked bacon. You wouldn't believe it unless you smelled it. I bought it to send to a friend of mine who just started DE shaving at Christmas as an inside joke (like most men nowadays, we have a running gag about bacon products), but I'm seriously struggling convincing myself to put it in the box and send it to him because it smells so good.
For the price, it is a darn good value. Free bacon smells whenever I want!
This!!
Hinoki and Bonsai are my two favorites at the moment. Hinoki is the winter version of Bonsai to me. I rotate between the two. 
I also like Diogenes too.

Good to know, thanks for the info.

I'd like to apologize personally for making a blanket statement regarding a shaving product. In the future I will tailor my comments regarding any products I am enthusiastic about.
Mama Bear's Aged Spice shave soap is a product that perhaps may appeal to fans of Old Spice......

I've purchased a fair few MB soaps. The ones most quickly used were Green Irish Tweed type, Diogenes Club, and Rosemary Mint. Over Christmas and even yet I'm enjoying Frankincense and Myrrh and Pine Forest which either I misremember the name or it has been re-branded Christmas Forest.
Two that I like that are underused due to liking the aforementioned just a little more are Hydrogen (which my wife really likes) and Awakenings. In my mind Awakenings is battling it out with Proraso and Omega.
Two that are slowly being used are Beau Brummel and Aromatic Pipe Tobacco. The Beau Brummel is slightly irritating to my skin and the Pipe Tobacco is a bit too powerful . . . the scent sticks all day.

Its tough to go wrong if you read the ingredients in the various soaps and pick ones that sound good to you. Some you will like better than others but I have about 10 and none of them gather cobwebs. That being said:
Diogenes Club
Marauder's Spice
Northwoods
Dragon's Blood
are my favorites.
