Ooft - Aldious - you never fail us mate. That rocks - settle down Beavis - Metallica in drag - no, let's not go there. Spinal Tap in ball gowns. I would have to say - I don't think the bass player suits pistachio. Other than that - faultless.This evening's shave was brought to you with the theme 'in praise of the Wool'

That Marmite of shaving soaps, MWF. Impossible to lather? No glide? Disappears quicker than it goes on? All falasy. A little blooming, a relatively dry brush, a bowl and I couldn't stop the lathering. Mountains of thick creamy lather with minimum effort. Apply to face and further lathering and all I could conclude was, bloody excellent.
The shave made great justification of the MWF and one of the finest shaves for a long time. Excellent polished results
And an equally as polished bunch of ladies to round off the evening
Have always wanted the natural mdc I've tried original, fougere and agrumes but found the essential oils to be so strong they are too strong for my skin does the natural have an scent at all do you smell the soap base or is it completely unscented ?

To my nose it have a very faint scent from the base, which i best can describe as "clean soap".Have always wanted the natural mdc I've tried original, fougere and agrumes but found the essential oils to be so strong they are too strong for my skin does the natural have an scent at all do you smell the soap base or is it completely unscented ?
