Am I the only one - bad shave with Arko stick

[jeepie]

Love Arko. Use it every day after trying a few cheaper soaps and wanting one for daily use. Up the water content and go for a slicker rather than creamier lather (so higher water %) and try again. See if you have better luck.

I started with a arko stick when i first started de shaving no complains from me, good lather and kinda like the smell too.

I suspect that if you went into any Turkish barbers for a shave, Arko is what you'd get.

I also suspect that if you used it for long enough you'd grow to like the scent. The scent gets weaker once the stick is unwrapped, so that lemon floor cleaner smell dies down a bit, and you actually have to breathe in to smell it, rather than it ramming itself up your nostrils.
