Another Soap from Tommy
TommyCarioca and I believe a never used brand to me but can't remember. Here's what is stated about it on the web:
We soaked balsamic tobacco leaves in icy ocean waters. How? A fragrance of tobacco and eucalyptus bathed in the cold mint molecule (D-menthol).
In order to make this a tropical cosmetic, we added Avocado oil. To make this precious, we added the ultimate natural antibacterial agent: Saffron Pistil Extract.
What I note: The Saffron Pistil comes in dead last on the ingrediant list so I don't imagine there's a lot of it in there but it makes for good advertising
The scent I get is a nice Cold Aguatic. When you smell the tub it isn't offensive menthol but you smell that it's a cooling soap and the fresh aquatic scent is there but I'm not able to distinguish the individual notes they describe. All that said I enjoyed using it and upon smelling it, I immediately knew the perfect AS to go with it would be from my stash of Pacific Rush which is down to a half bottle I'm working on and 1 full backup. This vegan soap gave a great lather and shave. My face feels clean and refreshed. I will definitely enjoy using this soap but I wouldn't buy it at it's price point of more than $12 an ounce. There are better quality soaps priced lower. Like I said it's a great soap to enjoy but that's my honest opinion on it's value. I hope all have a great day !
