I use Meissner-tremonia Pots of Milk. I prefer the paste to the soap but that is a personal preference as both are great IMO.

Claus, I'm coming closer and closer to joining you in this unscented shave mission. I think my face is actually just tired of EVERY SINGLE DAY having a product with fragrance smashed into it. I think my skin is saying it needs a rest, because it's getting more sensitive (usually post-shave) all the time I feel. Even though I'm getting GREAT shaves with some new soaps and old soaps alike, the skin just seems to want a rest from the overload. To be continued...

While i'm not going to make that move for soaps, I am looking at Stirling unscented aftershave splash. I already have their unscented AS balm which is nice. Have you considered looking at unscented aftershaves first before unscented soaps?

I actually don't use anything post shave. Just a water rinse and nothing else.
Ironically though, the other day I used AoS Unscented balm, which is fantastic, for the first time in a year or more. I had tried many others back a few years ago and this balm was by far my favorite and best performing in every aspect. Even their Lavender and Sandalwood ASBs lit me up, but the Unscented is perfect.
I never got along with any splashes either.

It performs well above what its minimal number of ingredients might otherwise suggest. Matches well with a range of scented and unscented soaps.

I see that L&L Grooming has their Premium Bison Tallow soap offered in unscented currently. I've never used it but the ingredients are top notch. When mine arrives I will post a review.

The new unscented L&L Bison tallow was great see and order along with Unconditional Surrender today.
Probably, at this point, the finest soap I have used along with Mike's.

To me better than CRSW Premium, Select, and even the new premium tallow from Jabonman.
And now unscented is just an added bonus.

Desmond's Barrow also deserves consideration. IMO it a top tier performer. Up there with Eufros, Mike's, CRSW, T&S, etc....

I would add Soap Commander Integrity (also available as a balm both with and without menthol) and Barrister & Mann's Unscented, although I don't have the new Latha version but the older white label version.
