It’s a risk worth taking. The scent is very distinct, quite different from other Barbershop scents. It has a semi sweet with that basil and kind of balsamic twist to it that gives it nice depth. The sweet and balsamic vibe dance together very nicely. The lather is just fantastic. I have pretty good water here, not hard or soft and it helps in building a great lather from almost all of the soaps I use. I will say that Shannon’s takes a bit more water and patience to build it up. I load it up real good on my brush that’s fairly wet, not drenched and just add a couple of drops at a time until I get the lather I want and that you see in the photo shots above. It performs and the Copaiba Rose is just sublime. Not overly complex with a bunch of notes or essential oils. Just Rose, Jasmine, Sandalwood and Copaiba resin oils. It’s a perfect balance that is blended with simplicity and is a masterfully done scented soap.
