Boring answer:
Overrated? You can insert any New And Exciting product here. A case can be made for the purity of the ingredients and more diverse scents. But, when the quality of the lather is not remarkably better than 'drugstore' options, you have to question whether a lot of the exciting new releases are little more than:
Good social media presence and well-pitched branding go a long way in influencing people's perceptions of worth. Add in slightly-obsessive gentlemen with disposable income, Internet 'group think', and you end up with quite a bewildering market. It's remarkable that the term 'artisan' now seems to be used synonymously with 'quality'.
It did lather great but for me, it was nothing special. Two of the soaps I had a slight reaction too, which was down to the menthol I think. Give it a try though, you may think the opposite.That's very interesting as I was planning to get a few Sterling soaps. I'm mainly interested in its easy lathering capabilities and more than average slickness.
You do realise that this is a personal judgement so under that category, Proraso, for me doesn't do anything to the level of similarly priced products.
There's no need to come in defence of any product, what is good for me might not necessary be good for you so I'm happy to accept the views of everybody
I use Monsavon Tallow Soap Regular & whilst its Cheap n Cheerful I would Rate it Higher than most Artisan Soaps that I have Tried..It goes on Forever as Well..
