Wait a few weeks and there will probably be another even better base
My face did not enjoy the recent experience with A&E soaps (except Spartacus). The lather was fantastic but the burning sensation was uncomfortable. Lovely scents though and I can see why people like these soaps.
Scent on the Kaizen sounds a bit like Hugo Boss Bottled.
They have a fragrance called Boss Bottled.Might you narrow that down since there are a boatload of Hugo Boss fragrances?

Glad to hear you like it. Don't get caught up in the bukkake party though!I used this Kaizen today and my subjective opinion is that it face lathered with childlike ease and was a cinch to find it's "sweet spot" for water retention. I only needed three swirls with a damp Tuxedo "quarter moon" brush on the tub before face lathering. That was enough. I cannot tell any slickness or cushion differences between it and his prior version, but that is because IMO it was already superb and not because of any shortcoming with Kaizen. The scent is certainly bright and unique. I like it.
Yes, for those who march to the PSF drummer they will be ecstatic as it delivers there in spades. I made a point to "faceturbate" post shave before washing to add my two cents as this factor seems to dominate the shave soap market nowadays. In fairness I feel the need to mention that PSF is meaningless to me as I always wash post shave with a cleansing gel.
The retail is U.S. $19.99 which is remarkable when some other top tier artisans have "kissed" $30.00 as of late. Is it worth it? That's a question that only you can answer. However, if you want a soap that has a remarkably crisp and unique citrus scent and has incredible PSF then this is your "wet dream". As for me, A&E had one of the best soap bases extant even before this one with top notch slickness and their scents are without peer for those who like tasteful & bold.
