On the plus side, astonishing performance for the price. Haven't tried Palmolive but this has to be a shaving bargain if ever there is one.
On the negative side, the smell is a bit Marmite. I don't mind it, but I can see how others might not. Plus it is very pungent. An unwrapped stick is currently filling the bathroom with its scent. My wife hasn't commented yet, but it's only a matter of time.

This sums up my view having used it today for the first time. I was really impressed by the slickness of the lather, but the smell seems a little 'clinical', for want of a better term.
There is certainly a case for always keeping it in a rotation, but I think I'm certainly willing to offset lather performance to a slight degree in preference of soaps and creams that smell great.

I think I may be about the only person who actually LIKES the smell of Arko...
