I have a synthetic blackburn that I've - so far - never ever been sore in, even after doing lots of no stirrup work. I find the seat very, very comfy and a few of my friends have agreed.
However, I'd borrow someones first before you think about purchasing it .. no point getting another saddle that doesn't help. It works for me, but a friend of mine didn't like it.

What doesn't kill you; is sure to leave a horrible scar. 
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
