Review (5/5): One of the cheapest and better performing shave soaps
I bought a stick to try, and I noticed two things. First I found the smell to be a nice clean soap scent that is very much like Ivory soap with a hint of lemon. A very nice clean scent, and not an offensive scent at all. No it is not a fancy Truefitt and Hill or Taylor of Old Bond St. scent, but more similar to Williams Mug soap. Second is that when I used it I simply rubbed the stick on my face, and then lathered with my shave brush. Effortless lather! The lather is also very very slick for a great shave. The quality of the lather, and the slickness is just as good as many high-end creams and soaps that I have tried. It actually out-performs some, and matches most high-end stuff. Very surprising for the price! Some complain that it dries their face. I found that it did not dry my face as much as William's. Since I use an aftershave splash or balm this is not an issue, but I found that it is not particularly drying even when I don't. If you're looking for a very good everyday shave soap, buy a stick of this and give it a try.
