* This jar had been lurking in the cupboard for years and I could vaguely remember using it only once. However dragged it out and found it impossible to get a decent lather however persevered and it did the job but I think its moving to the “disposal” dept!
** First time I’ve used this razor and it paired well with the SSX, decent weight and a longish handle.

This soap scent...hmmm...takes time to like it...the more I use. To my nose...more of a caramel popcorn followed by pumpkinish...not sure about the tobacco. The scent can sure last...especially matched with the splash. This soap lather performance is top-notch!!! Super rich, creamy, and very slick!
The shave with this razor paired with the blade was very easy, smooth, and comfortable. Absolutely enjoyed the 3passes without any issues for a mostly bbs finish. The matching aftershave splash is outstanding.

Wonderful shave with the Samhain, the more I use this the more I love this scent. It wouldn't be for everyone, and it's not like a lot of scents I currently have but a great winter offering.
Fantastically smooth finish courtesy of the blackbird and the blade of indeterminate life.
