Just all-around a good soap. A nice pleasant scent but the best is the lather, just satisfyingly rich creamy & slick, and easily whipped up by the excellent brush!
The shave with the razor paired with the blade was enjoyably smooth and efficient. 3passes for a bbsdfs finish with a couple of micro red spots...dang! The aftershave somehow is a good match...nice and cooling

Well, the time has come to switch to veggie Tabac Initial thoughts? Straight out of the box, the scent is "off". Don't know how else to describe it. Seems more chemical, and lighter. Performance is decent, but not as slick as previously (IMHO)
But my main gripe remains the smell. There is nothing when swirling, nothing on the face and nothing left after. Good job I've still got a decent supply of mini Tabac ASLs to keep me smelling right!

This morning the Karve razor was shaving very smoothly with the E plate. Plentiful, excellent lather from the Phoenix Artisan soap and Chubby synth, and a very close comfortable two pass shave was a great start to a hot day.

Rather mixed feelings with this Shave, dragged on initial clearance of 2 days growth. The overall finish was good but found that clearance around the edge of the lower lip was poor. Maybe the guarded blade is not good with The Raster.
I’ve not used the old spud peeler for a few months so I was a little twitchy pre shave.
Paired up nicely with the Tatra Platinum with no gaping gashes, always a bonus.
