Scent is great. As described it is jasmine forward but with a hint of earthy, and animalic notes lingering in the background. Scent is mid strong.
The real star here is this lusso base that’s been upgraded and appears to be on steroids. Now I haven’t used it to shave yet, just a test lather. To me lusso had the weakest post shave of the formulae especially with coattails. Chype vert was an improvement, but this one appears exceptional and the feel on my hand from palm lathering was reminiscent of Janus which is my top base.
I’ll chime in tomorrow after I’ve actually shaved with it to see if these comments were correct or not.
Very interesting!!! I used Chypre Vert yesterday and the lather was rich and fluffy and I had not used it since I first got it. I wanted a fresh take on it so that I can compare it to the new Lusso soap that is out
for delivery today. Lusso for me is 4th on my GD base chart behind Donkey Milk Combo base, Mallard and Janus bases. I had an awesome shave with the Chypre Vert yesterday though and for the first time, used a synthetic brush with a GD soap.
The pics above show that the base keeps getting better and better so I’m excited to try the Jasmine & Civet.
