Addicting scent and Unmatched performance
Performance of the soap is unmatched in the artisan game. This particular scent hits every note for me. smooth tobacco, hints of leather, slightly boozy, a little sweetness. Also my wife loves it. This is a winner!

Cloying IMO
I've enjoyed several Barrister & Mann soaps, going back to the Latha days. This one and the accompanying aftershave were not a pleasant surprise. The soap lathers and shaves well, but the scent is cloyingly sweet and fulsome, like a cheap vanilla pipe tobacco mixed with penetrating maple flavoring. My wife can't stand it, and that's the acid test. I'll stick with Seville, Cologne Russe, or Spice for everyday wet shaving.

Hi Arleigh! I'm sorry to hear that it's not for you. We've gone ahead and refunded you for both products. Thank you for trying it regardless!


Unpleasant.
This scent doesn't really seem reminiscent of the description. I was excited for it and would've been happy with it if it smelled like it was described or even as other people described it smelling like maple syrup. I'm not sure how to describe it but all it really reminds me of is dirty socks. Luckily the other two scents I ordered in my previous order were great so I'll definitely be using those instead of this.

Hi there Dylan! I'm sorry to hear that it's not for you, and I have refunded the cost of the Full Measure of Man soap back to your original method of purchase. Thank you!

Love it!
Excellent soap! Easy to lather; love the scent. Blooms really nicely as you build your lather..The scent strength is moderate and lingers in the background post shave for about half of the day for me. Performance is excellent with great cushioning and glide during the shave. Great post shave feel. This one is definitely a keeper for me.

Smells Like a Sweet, Rich Cigar
**** yeah, on this one. The scent is SO powerful and long-lasting. You gotta really own it. My wife hates it, but I don't care. It's for me, not her.
