I understand it had olive oil in it, which is usually the death knell for a shaving soap. That does not seem to be the case for Oliva.
I’m glad if you found one!
After hearing all the negative things said about olive oil in a shaving soap, my expectations for Oliva weren’t high when I first tried it. However, it was love at first shave. I sometimes wonder if it was the lack of tallow or the inclusion of olive oil that caused some people to avoid it. I’m sure some of them would have changed their minds, had they given it a shot…
Sorry if I derailed your thread!

Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”
