Let's man up...
Is it good? I have the AS which is fun to use, though not as strong as I was expecting considering the label and reading people online saying it was way too strong for them... I want it to hurt!
Nanny's Silly Soap is a top notch performer and her " Down Home Summer " is, to my nose, a truly strong, down and dirty vetiver. Allied to something like Fine vetiver you're likely to become known as the guy who scared Indiana Jones. Not for metrosexuals !

This is a good soap, easy to produce a good lather and strong menthol hit. But in this thread the OP @Hharry was asking for a soap with Masculine scent and this soap's scent is next to nothing, almost non existent, when you sniff the menthol opens the airways in your nose but I can say not scented.Let's man up...

The two Saponificio Varesino soap I tried had remarkable strong scents. 70th and Cosmo.
Nuavia's are also scent heavy hitters.

Avoid the hard soap variant, impossible to get a decent lather.
I believe Ian Fleming wrote Bond as wearing Eucris, a real old school in your face scent.

As others have mentioned, P&B Spitfire is where it's at. I could also recommend some heavier scents from Barrister & Mann like Night Music for the sexy or Hallows for the creepy. You might also like Diamond and Petrichor, I didn't like them much, but fit the description and are still available at Maggards.
'Fraid the fictional Bond wore no hair dressing or aftershave. The mention of Eucris is in a bathroom he is shown into and more probably refers to the Eucris hair oil which Mr. Fleming himself wore from his teens. I do agree the differently scented Eucris shaving soap is an absolute stonker !
