For me, it's like the perfect match Happy2! I generally like to use GLS when using a leather or tobacco scented soap.

For some reason, this use was the first time I clearly sensed the scent of leather in it. Gratiot League Square is one of those scents that seem to get better with time and more use.
Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

Right now Grooming Dept Ambrosia is one of my favorite tobacco scented soaps. I also like Catie's Bubbles Connecticut Shade for a sweeter tobacco scent.

Wow, so many to choose from but some of my favorites would have to be...
Tiki - The Captain
MW - Sweet Briar
Shannon's - Silk Pajamas
PAA - Cavendish
Eufros - Tobacco
County Club - La Habana
Henri et Victoria - Cognac & Cuban Cigars

The discontinued iColoniali soap is also often recommended and is a fantastic soap but my nose just doesn't pick up a Tobacco scent. I also have MLS Grand Havana (smells like an ashtray to me) and Caties Connecticut Shade (scent to me is just ok) both are great performers though.

No, but those all sound awesome. Do you know what artisan makes the soaps for him?

I have a sample or two of Antica Barbieria Colla green tobacco aftershave milk. I really like the scent. What soap has a similar green tobacco scent? I have Razorock Santa Maria del Fiore, and the ABC milk complements and finishes it off nicely, but it isn't really like that scent. How about the Tcheon Fung Sing Tabacco Verde soap? Very informative thread!
