By far the most expensive soap or cream I own, I loved it when I first bought it, then I developed a dislike for the fragrance, and soured on the performance. I put it away. Didn't use it for nearly a year. Today I thought, what the hell. Why not?
I'm still not wild for the smell, which is tenacious--the only soap or cream I own with a fragrance that lingers in the bathroom for hours. But, my goodness, the performance! A lather monster. The vaunted slickness was present. And the face feel was so great that, hours later, my face feels great. And i didn't use a balm, just cold water then a splash of witch hazel.
I used my Feather Artist Club with a ProGuard blade, did three passes, and it was a wonderful shave.
I'm so high on XPEC I'll likely buy it again when I run out. UNSCENTED.
