There's another modern version of Sir Irisch Moos shaving soap called SIR Waldmoos, a green, aromatic & woody scent inspired by vintage Sir Irisch Moos aftershave.

Haven't tried any of the dupes, Speedmaster, but I've heard that the PAA is pretty close.

Have you tried all of them Speedy?

I don't mean to tease you folks, but this has been sitting in my bathroom cabinet for many years now. The scent is very faint and I don't use it often enough to see if it is stronger underneath. Maybe I should cut the top off and press it into a puck just to check underneath?

Might as well, why not? You can still use what you've cut off as an unscented soap, or you can ginger it up with a spritz of cologne or EO into the lather.

In my experience, SIM scent strength is strong - up there with Tabac; after all, both are made by Mäurer & Wirtz.
It would definitely be worth a trim to see if this revives the scent. If not, @Gargravarr provides sound advice, as always.

Adding fragrance never occurred to me - Guerlain Vetiver from the cupboard might be a nice match.

I am a great fan of Tabac. I'm going to cut a 5mm disk off the top to try with added frangrance, and we'll see how it looks underneath.

Unfortunately (for me) I am relocating soon to a very small bathroom space, so pending evaluation of condition, this will very likely be up for grabs soon if anyone is interested. Stay tuned.
