Default Swissvax Concorso VS Smaragd

Are they the same? Different? Kinda pricey, wanted to try one, but only one. leaning toward Concorso.

BoS is soft and Concorso is supposed to be hard. To me Concorso is also pretty soft compared to others. Ive tried Rubbish Boys wax and they claim their wax to be hard, and that is a HARD wax, makes Concorso look like jelly. have not tried BoS yet, so cant give comments on that.

Just got Smaragd in from Phil yesterday, it is not soft. Quite hard actually.

I have Saphir, and that is very soft. I will be picking up Concorso soon also.

Smaragd is really nice, I'm very pleased with this product but I haven't tried Concorso so I'm not sure how they would compare.

Look forward to more feed back

Instead of starting a new thread I thought I would bring this old one back. I have Smaragd now and actually ordered more but I am curious about Concorso.
Has anyone yet had both Smaragd and Concorso? Was there any noticable differences in looks, durability etc.
