Mike's Natural Soaps Hungarian Lavender gets my vote. That one is one of my favorites!

I have a tin of WSP Formula T True Lavender shaving soap on the way and that sounds promising. If I remember, I will post back here with my impressions once it arrives.

I got one of those coming my way.  Nice?

Yes. I like it better than Hungarian Lavender. Let us know how you like it.

I completely agree.  But it is the Lavender I own.

I received and tried one shave with the WSP Formula T True Lavender shaving soap. It seems like a pretty straight forward lavender(True, maybe?) scent to me. I find it a very pleasant scent, but not as strong as Mike's Hungarian Lavender. The strength may increase as I work my way into the tin of WSP, though. WSP Formula T seems to be a very good performing soap too.

Castle Forbes Lavender. Just a fantastic performer and the lavender scent is rock solid. My wife uses this and I want to steal it from her.

It's not a soap but I really love Herbs of Bulgaria Lavender shave cream. Just picked up a few more tubes from shaveabuck.com

I am going to rate only soaps and only lavender in terms of scent:
1.Dr Selby
2. Barrister & Mann-Black Label Lavender
3.Yardley-black label


p.s ...the #2 comes close to #1


p.s 2 I would rate speick as my #1 but it is a cream...
