Won't please them all @AskegiGot mine today and used it earlier. Lathered up a treat and gives off a gorgeous minty menthol aroma, cushioning and glide were as good as first sample. Definitely feels colder, cold enough for me but the menthol freaks will probably moan Post shave my skin felt soft and supple. I'll definitely be buying some as I need another soap to keep the other sixty company. Once again thanks to Kerry for samples.
The mustiness you can detect I can almost guarantee will be the eucalyptus My nose finds the same thing with anything containing eucalyptus of any kind, including Proraso Green.Tried mine this morning. No problems getting an excellent lather with my EJ XL synthetic. Definitely more menthol than the last version and for me as a non menthol junkie I would say it's spot on. Colder than Proraso but not going to cause permanent neurological damage or anaesthesia. Menthol strength aside, there is something a little "musty" in the background on this sample. Not sure what is going on but I will leave it out in the open a bit and see what happens. Fragrance wise I would say for me as it stands this is nothing special but for shave quality and menthol strength it is really very good. Hopefully with a little time resting in the open air the mustiness will go and we'll see what it's like then.
