CL's (floral) Catalan is one of my favorite scents, I bet L&L's floral is also right up my alley.

I've now got four L&L soaps, and am starting to believe there's nothing better out there in terms of lather. I've got Harmony, Cuir, Rain and Tri (sorry I can't remember the full names), and they all lather like nobody's business. There are a few soap scents I like better (Tabac, Nuavia Blu and Rosso, MdC Fougere and Rose, etc.), but I really can't name a soap that makes better lather. In fact, I need to be careful not to overload the brush when I use L&L. It's very impressive stuff.

It's my top soap now for sure. Just a wonderful soap but...there are two soaps I can't wait to try and a couple of guys I really trust are calling them as good or better.

For milder razors, and just going to BBS, I'll use the tallows: Barrister and Mann glissant, Eufros, CRSW, with honorable mention to TTFFC and Ginger's Garden.

I've noted the many mentions of L and L Grooming, and just got my first two soaps from them in the mail today, and will give it a whirl tomorrow.

I'm curious. Do you mind sharing the names of those two soaps?

I thought you were going to say Wholly Kaw! I just got mine yesterday and I can't wait to try it.


I'm definitely trying Grooming department, as for Tallow and Steel. It's an awesome soap and the artisan is just a swell guy. I think L&L, Tallow & Steel and Bufflehead are on the same level.

The new T&S will be very different but back to L&L which is right there too!

I have Tallow+Steel Classic, which is also an awesome soap. Much in the B&M and CRSW school. The L&L, in my book, is a slight step above. Let's see what the new T+S soap is like, however.
