Bouki, was this the soap or the paste? And one more follow-up question: Have you had a chance to try both?

Hello, Matthew! Thanks for your question. I've been using a sample of Meißner Tremonia soap. The pucks must be quite hard, since the sample comes grated, in a small plastic bag. I dip out a pinch and smear it in my lathering bowl. I ordered the sample from Connaught Shaving in the UK.
I haven't tried the paste yet, but I have ordered more samples of MT soaps from Paul. I like the lather the soap makes, and I hope to find a scent that appeals to me, too.

Any recommendations?

It’s interesting that the sample of Strong ’n Scottish soap I have from Connaught came in a small jar, but on other sites I have seen Meißner Tremonia soap samples in the plastic bags (grated form) you mentioned.

I believe Michael P has some experience with these soaps and creams (“paste”), and might have some recommendations. I was just looking at them recently, and Dark Limes, Exotic Elemi, Warm Woods, Wild Oranges and Woody Almond sound especially interesting to me. (Yes, that’s quite a few, and to think they have several more scents…)
