I have Blu and Verde and have used a sample of our DFS LE. I don't find Verde and DFS to be similar but will wait for the final production soap to make the final call.

Of the two that I do have, I actually like the scent of Blu marginally more than Verde which is very surprising based on the profiles. I will certainly post a more direct comparison [my sample is long gone] of DFS and Verde once mine has arrived from Gareth.

Marco PannaCrema has informed me that this soap is flying off the shelves, I wasn't able to order as much as I hoped to due to low inventory. More is on the way though!

I really like the DFS soap that I have. If I wanted to try Nuavia, which scent would you recommend for a different type of scent? Looking at the Verde or Rossa. Blue seems to have a similar profile to DFS from reading the description.

Rossa is strikingly similar to RazoRock The Stallion if you've ever sniffed that one. I know that may sound blasphemous to some, but I had both side by side and could barely tell the difference by scent. Of course the Nuavia blows RR out of the water performance wise and it does get more complex upon lathering. Just my 2 cents...

I just noticed the pre-sale available at The Handle Bar, but all must have sold out.  That's disappointing.  I was really looking forward to this one!

Flip a coin.

I love all the scents. I did chose to buy the Rossa first though (wink wink nudge nudge).

Thanks, Gareth! So, there still is hope!

Marco PannaCrema I was wondering if the formulation of the DFS PannaCrema Pure2O is different than the Vetiver?

I ask because I used the Vetiver yesterday and while very good, I found the DFS soap to lather more easily.

Thanks!
All the best,

They are exactly the same, Michael, so the difference should be found in a different variable than the soap. Wink

Ah, thanks, Marco!

In this case, 'The fault, dear shaver, is not in our soap but in our selves that we are underlatherers!'Smile
