I've been a bit quiet, working through the samples.
Russian leather, very good indeed, I've posted my thoughts on this one a while back.
Lemon cool:
don't mind the sent, smells like citronella oil to me & it reminds me of camping/insect repellent.
Like it, however, not a luxurious olfactory experience.
No evidence of cooling at all, nothing.
This all seems a little dour until I get to the shave performance, a-mazing.
It is the easiest to lather, top notch performing soap I've had the pleasure to try.
This is the one for daily use when I haven't got time to faff about, it lathers so easily & delivers a great shave every time. It worked for me a smidge better than the Russian leather, don't know if there is an ingredient tweek or perhaps I'm just getting dialled into to using the samples for 2+ weeks straight now.
It works well with all my brushes,. I have a boar, badger & a synthetic.
I've chopped & changed blades, razors , se & De.
Every time a great, close, irritation free shave.
I have used other soaps that are just a hair's breadth in front in terms of post shave or cushion.
None are as forgiving/consistent as this formula seems to be.
Great soap, scent is a bit meh (nicer than arko is not really a compliment is it?).
Really looking forward to the final round, thanks.
