Cilantro of shave soaps
Reading the reviews it's obvious that the smell of Arko is like the flavor of cilantro: some people seem to be sensitive to it and really don't like it.<br /><br />I'm one if those people. The smell is really off-putting. I get a strong chemical smell,  with notes of a medicine called Dimetapp that they used to give me when I was a kid.<br /><br />You can mitigate the scent somewhat unwrapping the soap and letting it breathe, but it smelled up my medicine cabinet.<br /><br />The shaving stick is a great way to apply and manage the soap. It makes a great lather, and gives a decent shave. Especially at this price point.<br /><br />However, it dries it my skin, which I can't get past. If it didn't, I'd just store it in the garage to deal with the smell (the shell of this will definitely keep bugs and pests away).
