Picked up a tub of Thrice Great a few days ago, scent is very similar to Fine L'Orange Noir which is awesome. Citrus/orange with a touch of dirtiness, wonderful scent and the same L&L performance so many rant and rave about, but in all seriousness it is good stuff. and the bison formula is pretty unique.

I think L&L is a bit better in those areas than those you listed. Dont get me wrong, Mike's and B&M are among my favs. The soap is very soft. I find that Darkfall is a bit harder than Trismegistus. I used to not like soft soaps because I load/lather directly on the puck. L&L changed that. I load up, it's a paste at this point, then either lather in a bowl or on the face. It does like some water. For me, the extra effort pays off. Once the lather is ready....wow. Just my 2cents.

Mikes has significantly better post shave feel than L&L, I tested on my skin - used nothing after shaving.
Mikes and B&M are slicker than L&L, but i can't say that much slickness is needed.
L&L has similar cushion compared to CRSW.

As you can see YMMV
Just get a sample from Maggards and test.
