The differences (Mango, Greek Yogurt, Camelia, Bentonite, Beeswax) are marked.
In the end the doubt is revealed: the label is of the formulation of
January 2020.
The same as Cannabliss Santal, very different from the new Formula Kaizen.
This is the
list of ingredients (INCI):
Stearic Acid, Beef Tallow, Goats Milk, Shea Butter, Potassium Hydroxide, Kokum Butter, Mango Butter, Glycerin, Cocoa Butter, Castor Oil,
Manteca (Pig Fat), Strangisto Giaourti (Strained Yoghurt), Avocado Oil, Coconut Oil, Camellia Oil from Japan, Sodium Hydroxide, Lanolin,
Agave, Bentonite Clay, Beeswax, Sodium Lactate, Argan Oil, Fragrance & Essential Oils.
Already at the sight, and above all to the touch, you notice the difference.
Thicker, non-gelatinous and more homogeneous consistency.
But above all it is seen in behavior and
yield.
In fact Kaizen is very fast ... in everything.
For my taste, this version of the A&E base is the best.
Pay for sure with a little speed, but all the other features are better.
A little less comfortable, it has a slightly higher water point and therefore requires more work.
But once achieved, the resulting thick cream is a wonder almost at the level of Kaizen.
But with greater lubricating capacity, especially
secondary lubrication.
And as usual, this detail also has a positive effect on the
conditioning of the skin.
In fact the postshave of this base for me is clearly superior.
One detail that I find truly fantastic is the fragrance.
The olfactory pyramid is not public, but the description of the
fragrance is true.
It starts with a rich and spicy herbaceous aroma (Herb, but not too much !!).
A floral body and notes of rum continue.
Finally, with cedar wood, sandalwood and a touch of patchouli.
All harmonious, with light notes of Cannabis and a lot of luxurious Sandalwood.
The rest creates a well-designed and coherent melange, very pleasant.
Perhaps only those fond of the most natural genre will be disappointed.
In fact, this A&E is very different from TFS Stupefacente and similars.
Less flat, more chic, definitely more exciting.
Really perfect with the "Terre de Sarment" perfume.
I also find the
packaging beautiful.
Solid, effective, and classic graphics but with a modern touch.

In summary, this model
I will regret.
Not so much for the technical characteristics.
Unfortunately, he is unable to keep my dermatitis at bay on his own.
But for the general characteristics, enhanced by the fragrance.
Which (from what he says) also seems to be Peter Charkalis' favorite.
