I like Dr. Squatch pine tar, but even when I scrub the hell out of myself with it, it doesn’t have a lingering smell like the Duke cannon soap does after scrubbing with the tactical scrubber. It’s very pleasing and I also enjoy that the Duke Cannon soap is massive and provides a better price for what you get. I feel Dr.Squatch has a strong smell in the package but it unfortunately doesn’t transfer to your skin well. Oh and the Dr.Squatch crumbles to bits when it gets remotely ‘thin’.

So I had this debate with someone already. The comparable ingredients between the bars are the same. It's just that Duke uses the chemical names for the ingredients vs. the "normal words". They're both organic not that that makes any difference rubbing crap on your skin.... i.e. Sodium Chloride === Sea Salt etc....

Yes most of the ingredients are the same, however the big stand out one with Duke Canon is the pentasodium pentetate, that is not an organic compound and is used to bind metal ions and neutralize them. However it cannot be classed as a natural soap because of it. Its also banned in some countries as well.

FYI- natural ingredients can hurt you and non-natural chemical compounds can be good for you as well. It’s not a good generalization to make that “natural means better for you”.

PSA: I've seen this complaint across many various soap company reviews "the scent smells good in the shower, but I can't smell it later in the day" ......you're NOT supposed to. That's not what soap is designed for. If you can still smell your soap on you at the end of the full day, you probably didn't rinse off well and you're going to have skin as dry as the Sahara Desert if you keep doing that. Advice? This is what we have cologne for gentlemen. I've used some of the Duke Cannon colognes, they're cheap, smell good, and aren't obnoxiously overpowering. (Sometimes do have to reapply the solid cologne midday depending on what you do for work) Also, if you're not a cologne guy, find a body lotion that gives off a nice scent.

Dr Squatch is more expensive , has a slightly stronger scent up front , but the bars melt faster in shower or bath use, and will crumble quickly( best to use one of those shower scrub or definitely a towel) and with switch you need to wash it down from your skin Duke lasts longer per bar ( scent comes on strong under hot water and lathers up good) definitely pair it with a solid cologne Duke also has better sales - a 4 pack of Duke is $26-29 vs Dr Squatch 4 pack at $32- 36 Choose Dr Squatch on dirty days ( digging up backyard or working on car) but Duke Cannon as a bar can literally last a month of before and after work showers Salute the Duke!

Those ingredients in Duke Cannon are not chemicals, but derived from natural products.

I've used Squatch for over a year and have never even come close to the smell issue you had. Yes, it smells pretty strong just sitting there, but after the shower is done, the smell doesn't stick around at all. Also the point of the oatmeal is the grit. If you don't like grit, get their soaps without it. I, myself, prefer the ones with various grits for exfoliation. Yours really had a strange wear pattern, too. Mine always stays rectangular.

Despite the fact that duke is a better value for money and the smell lasts after wards if you pay more for you soap you need to use a soap saver and take it out of your bathroom to dry after. Don’t expose any nice soap with more water than you need to and it WILL last longer….i don’t think duke has as many “bad” chemicals as people are claiming…also for the love of god guys use a loofah or a wash rag. The grit just worsens your skin by tearing it. Unless you have a huge patch of dry skin that needs to go why even use the bar directly on your body? That’s gonna waste a lot of the soap anyways and the rag/loofah will lightly exfoliate you as long as you don’t have the dove branded one 😂

Duke KILLED EM

I have been trying out some of these men's soap and shower companies, trying to find out which ones I like over others. Regarding Dr squatch, the pine tar is the only soap fragrance of theirs that I actually do like, precisely because it is so strong. I don't want some whisper or pretense of fragrance in the bar, I want a powerful, muscular scent that threatens to knock me on my ass. However strong that s*** might be in the shower, it definitely does not last long on my skin. All the other squats fragrances, in my humble opinion, or mediocre at best. But I just recently tried out Duke Cannon I got the sawtooth body wash and two in one stuff for my hair, end up the Three soap companies I've tried so far, bearsville is the third one, Duke Cannon is the worst by far.. at least when it comes to fragrance, Duke Cannon sucks balls. Strictly in terms of fragrance, baresville is the winner from what I have tried out so far. But I do like the scotch hair care stuff, though it's quite expensive. But a strong pine tar fragrance from squash? No, that's an asset

You should throw RIDGE THICK into the mix for conversation.

Duke Cannon is a little heavy on the scent, but damn if their marketing isn't genius. I thought Dr. Squatch was genius, but Duke Cannon has that "most interesting man" packaging.

I agree! The pictures on the naval supremacy and victory soap boxes of Duke Cannon are what got me interested in the brand and I bought them just because of the boxes.

I suggest you do something from Dr. Squatch with less grit. Bay Rum is my favorite scent. Freedom Fresh was a limited-time but is still available on eBay and sometimes rack stores. Freedom Fresh has zero grit and smells like a normal soap like Dove or whatever.

Yeah the same thing happens to me, probably because of water that wears it down when others in my family shower too. Still good bars but wish they were bigger.

Duke canonn is Twice the size for basically the same price, and is a far far far better product. Also they support the troops so it’s a win win. Duke Cannon wins by a mile.

Squatch is so overhyped and overpriced it’s crazy. They seemingly disappear by just looking at them. Duke’s last easily 4x longer.

The fact that Dr. Squatch apparently blocked Duke Cannon on Twitter makes the comparison so much funnier

@@mens_essentials I don’t know if you’ve tried the Duke Cannon Tactical Scrubber, but it can help your soap last longer, makes it easier to hold onto, and it exfoliates your skin as you scrub.

My experience with dr squatch is ok but not the best. My first bar was pine tar which smells great but god forbid it stained my shower. Plus they don’t last long about a month and a half with showers once a day or every few days, now on my last bar. Today I bought like 7 bars from dukes and they last for months

Yeah I had the same experience with the pine tar from dr squatch it did not last long, but the bay rum from squatch actually lasted longer and I liked it more too. Duke cannons bars are huge and heavy so they last longer. My favorite Duke cannon so far is the one that has deschutes ipa in it.

Duke cannon is the greatest soap especially the pine

The Duke soaps are slightly stronger in the aroma department. I’ve used 6 different Squatch ones in the past and they’re pretty faint on smell. You won’t detect any of them after you shower.

It does seems like when dr.squach soup being all natural it's like I'm sure women would like to have something like that.

That’s a good point. I haven’t seen any commercials for soap directed at women like the ones from dr squatch.

Squatch smells good, 5oz bar, doesn’t last long at all because they are single milled. Duke some smells good, 10oz bar, lasts forever because they’re triple milled. No brainer. At Military PX/BX duke goes for 6$. I picked up two Frothy The Beer Man couple days ago for 4$ a piece. Squatch at Walmart goes for 10-12$ here in Alaska

I actually made a follow up video regarding the ingredients because I realized how ignorant I was about the ingredients and how marketing can make us believe other products are inferior. I'm not saying you have to go watch it or anything, but I just needed to clarify some stuff from this video.

The Duke scent seems to stick with me longer and I’m a fan of the pouch. I must say it’s tough to get a good lather going with the pouch but you get there.

Dr Squatch is too expensive for the quality of product they give you. Their Star Wars soap absolutely sucked. Duke Cannon is only one dollar more, but their bar is double the size and the pleasant smell is longer lasting. That’s a win for me. I’ve been using Dr Squatch for over 2 years. Because of the oatmeal, Pine Tar feels like sandpaper. 😂

Love both of these soaps but I can’t believe you only gave it a 6 out of 10 , dr squatch is better hands down ,me and my kids both use it and it is expensive but there is no doubt it’s much better and better for you , no bad chemicals , smells awesome and it’s all natural leaving your skin feelng amazing, I only get Duke cannon when I run out and I brake out from any other soap including Duke cannon but not as bad , hands down dr squatch is a 10 out of 10 and much better

I’ve actually changed my thoughts about the dr squatch since I made this video. I tried the pine tar shampoo and deodorant and I love both of those. Which made me want to try the soap again and I can honestly say it is one of the best pine tar soaps I’ve tried, although I’ve only tried 2 others. But it’s really grown on me.

Must have been background noise (on my side) but when you mentioned Oatmeal in the Dr Squatch soap, I thought you said Opium. That would make for a different bathing experience (and scent) but since many employers require random drug testing, also maybe not the best idea. Oh well...
