Gorgeous smell

Wow! Wow! Wow!

This soap was hard and I thought it might prove difficult to lather. However, it produced a rich creamy lather very quickly that seemed to last for ages, it had a very nice luxuriant feel to it and provided a nice cushion and slickness. To top it off it comes in a very nice wooden bowl that looks great on display. The scent was a subtle sandalwood with a hint of talc that lasted for quite some time after the shave. Can fully recommend this as a top notch soap.

Great scent

In my opinion this is a great soap for the price. It has a fairly strong scent of sandalwood. As soon as the lid is lifted, my bathroom is filled with the scent. It is quite pleasing. The lather is quite nice as well. Some of the comparisons to shave creams in other reviews confuse me. Shaving cream is always going to be easier to lather. With proper technique you can achieve the same result with soap. I've been loading my brush out of the bowl and haven't noticed the wood warping as a result, so the soap doesn't seem to require removal from the bowl. I definitely recommend if you want to go veteran mode. If you want to go easy mode, go with the cream. Even if you’re new to shaving I implore you to go with the soap. It’s so much more rewarding than using a cream in my opinion. Wet shaving isn’t about convenience, it’s about the ritual. It’s about maintaining a practice that is slowly being forgotten by time. Keep it alive.

Average performer

The shaving cream version of this product outperforms this soap by a mile.

The slickness is Average, skin protection is very good but the softening of the hair is not so great.

Lather is nice and creamy but requires more effort to create compare to its competition. You will need to load a lot onto a brush to benefit it’s full performance.

As for durability I don’t know I haven’t used the product long enough.

Awesome

Everything about this product is perfect. It is a bit pricey and bought it as a treat, after using it no regrets at all.
Great lather
