Are there products you use nearly exclusively in one season? For example, I use bay rum mostly in the summer, and Acqua di Selva mostly in the winter. In general, I use more balms in the winter and splashes in the summer.
What are you looking forward to getting reacquainted with this spring and summer?

Just like you, I use AS during warmer months and ASB during winter. As for soaps, I put down my trusty Tabac and reach for more light scented soaps like RR XXX or something with menthol.
I'm looking forward to getting reacquainted with new Proraso this summer. It'll be a cool one

Tabac was my regular winter soap. (I finally used it up, it lasted three long Seattle winters!)
I also like using Musgo Real ASL in the winter, as it is nice and moisturizing, even though it isn't a balm.
Spring is barely here in Seattle, I'm looking forward to summer and using some RazoRock XXX.

Citrus Based Colognes and A/S in the Spring and Summer.
Menthol Creams in the Summer C.O. Bigelow, etc.
Musk and Spice Colognes and A/S in the Fall and Winter.
I prefer no menthol in the winter, but due to a certain blade testing regimen, the menthol cream / gel mix was used all winter.
WARS is my favorite winter cream.

I find myself reaching for the I Coloniali soap/cream more often in the summer. It has a bit of menthol and the scent is nice. Also, for some reason I prefer Cyril Salter Sandalwood in the summer. In winter I lean towards, MdC, Tabac, Cyril Salter Vetiver, and QCS Cordovan. Cella is good year round, I think.

Booster June Clover splash for spring and summer. Booster Mosswood for fall and winter.
I agree with Johnny about a menthol splash...or a menthol anything. I can't get enough of menthol no matter the season or temperature.
I shaved with a TSD menthol shave cream today with a menthol splash and aloe and glycerin mixed with a little of the TSD Menthol Bomb on a cool spring morning and I felt alive.
I wish had some of that Floid Blue he talks about.
