Extro Cosmesi Soap Review Thread

There's a new Extro coming to town called The End. It's Donato's nod to Faberge's Brut:


I'll definitely be buying this once it's available in the UK
This arrived earlier in the week and I tested it with a palm lather today. Smells absolutely fantastic and produced a great lather. I'll report back here once I've shaved with it.

I can see @TomG , @JohnnyO and @NeilJ enjoying this one.
 
The End is now available from Shaving Time:


If I had just waited 5 days I could have saved myself a small fortune :ROFLMAO:

Razor: Mongoose Mingoose
Blade: Schick Proline (3)
Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia 2B
Soap: Extro The End
Pre: Proraso White
ASL: Brut
ASB: LEA

This soap was everything I hoped it would be. Super slick and really fragrant. This has pushed its way in to my top 3 Extro soaps. It's a stronger scent than Right Handed Giant with a few extra notes in the tail that I can't quite out my finger on. Smells great. This is the scent profile:

Top Notes: basil, calabria bergamot, lemon, absinthium artemisia , lavender.
Heart Notes: geranium, ylang ylang.
Base Notes: oak moss, patchouly, sandalwood, tonca bean, vetiver, vanilla.

The graphics - a shark about to eat a lady on a lilo. I'm not sure what that's about.

We could tell you, but then we'd have to, you know the rest ...

When I used to get brut from my local (cheap) store as a kid, the smell was so strong and something I can't think of at the moment, it used to take the back of your throat out. Put me off Brut ever since. Years later a colleague was wearing a nice smelling scent, when I asked him what it was, he told me Brut, the same that Elvis used to wear. Christ knows what the stuff was I used to get.
 
The real McCoy was before my time but I'm led to believe P&B Right Handed Giant is a close match. This smells like a stronger version of that soap - maybe slightly more complex.

P&B RHG was a more muted version of the original Brut IMO. Yes, I owned a tub and traded it to someone who wanted it worse than I did.
