Tabac Original Shaving Soap Bowl 125 g

Product Information

Honestly, I do not smell it. To me, it is very overly floral and sweet. It smells like old people. It is the same fragrance I get when visiting my grandparents’ house where I can’t touch anything and have to be on my best behavior. However, much like my own notes above, several users have noted the smell as being anything from “nothing to write home about” to “nearly repellent.”

Funnily enough, Germany is more commonly known for making shaving razors and brushes, not necessarily soaps. Though the same kind of superior engineering you would get from most German products is definitely on display here. TABAC ORIGINAL is a sophisticated composition fragranced with peppery-spicy notes and elegantly rounded off by exotic woods, musk, ambergris and a floral complex. An unmistakable fragrance with a discreet presence. Overall, if you are already a fan of this soap, then the smell is not going to turn you off at all. If you aren’t already a Tabac user, there is very little reason to jump over to a new soap. The refills are inexpensive, but not something that you really should try if you aren’t already looking for something new. So we’re down two great soaps from Italy ( Cella Almond& Cella Aloe) and another great shaving soap from England ( Stirling). What’s next? The texture of this soap is very interesting, to say the least. It isn’t bad by any stretch of the imagination at all.Responses to fragrance are personal so I discuss it qualitatively without a score. Original Formula Tabac My shaving brush is a synthetic brush. Therefore if you are using something like a full silver-tip badger or super badger brush, you will probably have no trouble building a nice and rich lather to go with this. I have read enough on this forum to be able to paint, what I consider, a pretty accurate picture of the new Tabac.

Tabac Shaving Soap: A Great Choice For Everyone A Review of The Tabac Shaving Soap: A Great Choice For Everyone

About the Brand: Tabac is a name that has been in the shaving community for many decades. Largely considered something of a “Dad soap,” Tabac original has been produced since the 1960s. Owned by a German Perfume and Beauty company known as Maurer & Wirtz, Tabac is a classic line of fragrances designed specifically for men. Ease of lathering: As with the original formula, I scored this a 5 with a badger brush and 3 with a synthetic for an average of 4. But there was a major difference between the original’s lather and the new formula. The original produced a dense, silky lather while the new version was much lighter and less dense. I don’t know how chemists score density so I’ll use a dairy analogy. The original formula was like a low-fat yogurt—OK, not exactly and without the fruit—while the new formula was like whipped cream from an aerosol can. The difference on my face was noticeable and that concerned me because less dense lathers have produced inferior shaves for me in the past. sealed products which are not suitable for return due to health or hygiene reasons if unsealed after delivery (unless these items were damaged or faulty when delivered to you or have been incorrectly delivered)Okay, my plan is to shave for 30 days with the new formulation and alternate with the old formulation for 1 shave only every week or so. I might switch from a boar to a badger to a synthetic brush but I will try to keep the same setup for at least a week. That way, I should be able to keep a consistent result.
