Luxury shave soap
This soap has been around since 1957. It has stood the test of time providing a creamy lather that is easy to lather with either synthetic or natural brushes. The post shave face feels smooth and refreshed. I can find no reference to tobacco scent being used in the product but it is a complex scent profile and quite strong. Personally I love it. By in glass jar first and top up with refills. A quality product at a very reasonable price. Recommended.Read full review...

One of the finest, creamy and great smelling products ever tried
From the the first use of this soap I was wandering what brush should I use. But to be honest performs well with any kind of brush even with best or black badger. On the other hand the as a semi hard soap pairs even better with my board Semoge 1305.
As a performance I would say that the creamy texture of its lather is the best of its kind!
As a tallow soap I was expecting to be a better emollient for my extra dry skin. Maybe this is the only downside that I found compared to others.
Last but not least the smell is quite addictive. The first days after I bought it I was opening the puck bowl to smell it!Read full review...

Superb product..
I originally bought the full shaving bowl, after having sublimes shaves with it, i came across the refill and thought i would purchase it, and add it to my shaving den, this is a wonderful ols school classic scented shaving soap, which some people will probably not take to, but i personally like it..it's performance, is outstandingly good.Read full review...

Best shaving soap.
I have used Wilkinson Sword, Arko and various others including a hand made one from the Highlands, but Tabac is definitely the best one. Put it on with the brush, then re-dip the brush in hot water and brush again brings a rich creamy lather, instead of washing away like some of the others; it seems to moisturise as well. Subtle fragrance and long lasting. Can't recommend this high enough if you like a traditional shave. It even makes me want to consider a cut throat razor again!!
My Dad used Tabac and now I know why.Read full review...

Frothy and nice smell.
Since I bought this for my husband, I can't really say how it feels. He says its great and by the look of his soap dish it produces good froth?. I also like the smell.

Good value does the job.
This soap is easy to lather with a brush, unlike some other shaving soaps I have used. Little fragrance but not an issue for me. Have used this soap over many years for double edge shaving.

New favourite
I find this preferable to previous, more expensive, London brands. Doesn't smell as nice, but quickly produces a thick, non-fling, almost sticky lather if the brush is not too wet (so it doesn't splatter the bathroom and mirror, which leads to a more peaceful life!). True Germanic efficiecy!Read full review...

Great shaving soap.
I've used this shaving soap for a few years now, it has a lovely aroma and works up to a thick creamy lather.

One of the best soaps out there.
There's a reason Tabac has been around so long.I've got over 30 soaps and i'd put this against any of them.Great slickness,cusion and glide and a clean soapy barbershop scent.It's always in my rotation of soaps can't fault it.As always YMMV.Read full review...

Old school
Lathers really well,doesn't leave razor burn and has an unusual smell somewhere between tobacco and flower scent.Have used it for ages.
