Soap that copies the scent of Canoe Cologne ??

Canoe is similar to Pinaud Clubman and Avon Wild Country.

What kind of soap are you looking for? Shave, bath/bar?
 
For another option...

If you don't mind buying from PAA, they make one called "Clubguy" that is an homage to Pinaud Clubman.
 
I would love a soap in the Clubman scent too. CBL: any chance of making one?

Otherwise, thanks dkeester for pointing me in the PAA direction.

It wasn’t in my plans but the idea came up a week ago and I’ve been chewing on it since. Now, I’m thinking there will need to be another batch.

I have never tried the PAA club guy so I can’t say how it smells. I know the newer clubman soap doesn’t smell like clubman. I think the new clubman soap MIGHT be a vanilla clubman scent, but the soap is not all that wonderful.

I remember trying the Clubman soap when it came out quite awhile ago and agree it didn't smell like clubman at all. Wasn't a great soap and hated the tiny puck too. Never tried Canoe so I had no idea it was a Clubman copy.
 
I would rather buy from CBL & get the top tier quality instead of PAA Clubguy soap. CBL, if you can nail the original Clubman scent, I will stock up on that soap! FWIW, stock up to me means getting 2 - 3 tubs.

I’ll work on it. Getting the scent right can be tricky but I’ve done it a couple times (each one better than the other).
EDIT: The canoe scent is very similar and in many ways my clubman scent is more like canoe than a splash of clubman.
 
I'll be following this with great interest Chris. I'm excited to see what you can do. If I had my preference, I would choose the Clubman scent over the Canoe scent.They are similar, but Clubman is a bit more refined & powdery, IMHO.
