I did order this shaving soap from www.bullgooseshaving.net with an excellent serivce (as always) from Phil.
This is a truly great soap,I must admit,even better than the Lavender refill I tried several months ago and almost like the lavander bowl one (they have different formulations and the bowl one its not longer made).
Its presentation its really nice,with the black box and white letters,kind of the Trumper Eucris one (I think this soap its the TOBS answer to that one).
As you can read its a palm oil based shaving soap,with sweet almond oil:
And,of course,its a triple milled soap,which means that its gonna last you a long time of everyday use,but also,you have to load the brush with more soap than if you were using a melt and pour soap or a shaving cream.
This soap creates a really rich land thick lather,reminding me of the Plisson shaving soap but also has more "slickness" due,I guess,to the sweet almond oil,which also nourish the skin.
The shaves with this soap have been great,much better as I have pointed,than the ones with the TOBS lavender refil one.My skin its not dry after the shave (I have really dry skin) so Im really happy about this.
And the best of all?Its scent.This is a really complex scent,full of different tones and really elegant as well as manly.The scent last during the shave and even afterwards,making me delight sine I really like it a lot.If you really like Trumper Eucris and youre looking for a soap with a better skin care,this is the one.
Well done for TOBS.
