I'd like to play along. I have the 5 scents below. Mike's was the first artisan soap I tried ~4 years ago. I tried many many other soaps after that and came back to Mike's as being one of the best.

Bay Rum
Lavandin & Eucalyptus
Wild Honeysuckle
Peppermint & Rosemary
Lemongrass & Eucalyptus

I often tease myself with the idea of selling all my software and just keeping Mike's. It was one of my first soaps and is still one of my best...all these years (& artisans) later.

My favs are the 2 lavenders and the barbershop.

So glad to see this thread is still thriving! Mike makes such an excellent soap, it's worth every bit of praise it receives.

Wait, there's two lavenders? The only one I ever knew about is the Hungarian.

EDIT: I guess the other one is the Lavandin & Eucalyptus then?

This reminds me I never thanked Aurelian28 and EFDan for your assistance with comparing the scent of Mike's Barbershop and Maggards London Barbershop.  I purchased the London Barbershop aftershave and it pairs nicely with Mike's.  I'm no scent expert but it's close enough for the girls I go with. Thank you both.


Any suggestions to pair with Mike's Honeysuckle?   Big Grin

A truely great performing soap and I in my top 4 for sure. I have a couple of Mike's Coconut and Bay Rum I want to get my hands on his Rose and Cedarwood. Had a small sample a while back which is now all gone but I l just love that scent.
