1 & 2 are currently under evaluation. 3 is known good stuff

Nice purchases! I also took delivery of a Yaqi Brush (not used it yet) and have had the MS2000 for a while now, I find it works well with a milder blade - best shaves have been with a Trig Silver Edge.

I've not tried the Sapone da Barba but I am thinking of placing an order for it with my next Shave Dash buy. Have you used other Italian Croaps of Cella, 3P and Vitos? If so how does it compare to it?

I've used both Cella and Vitos. I would rate the La Saponeria Artigiana as marginally behind Vitos, but in my experience better than Cella. Lathers very easily, great cushion and post shave is very good. The coconut version also provides a change from the usual almond croap scents.

I also find Vitos to be a great performer, I prefer it to Cella as well. The downside of those two croaps and 3P is the almond scent which I'm not too keen on so I'll get a sample of the LPA Coconut. Thanks for the info.
