This morning I woke up to an odd inner feeling of bravery. So, right after breakfast was consumed I strolled down my corridor and headed for my bathroom with a steady pace and a look of resolve glancing in my eyes. Today was the day. I'm on my own for the whole day and I can take the risks. So I opened my cabinet and took out the Chiseled "Sherlock" and the bottle of Floïd. I would describe the Sherlock's scent as... wet towels kept in a basement for a couple of weeks. It smells that weird . Floïd, on the other hand, is the Spanish version of agent orange, sourced from concentrated cat wee, that made a few generations of Spaniards invulnerable to any kind of nuclear, bacteriological or chemical attack likely to come from the defunct Soviet Union .

All in all, I found the soap's performance just brilliant. Lathers quickly, slickness and cushion are in top notch levels and so is post shave. I really liked it. Not the scent, as you can deduct from the above paragraph, but scent wise, I have to say that it has the right intensity. Had the scent been of my liking, I would have enjoyed it quite a bit because it stays with you the whole shave. As for Floïd... Well, it's a sort of a tradition, a tribute to Grandpa (Dad was more of a Velva type) and to be honest, it is a good splash. It's just this outdated scent that I am now... still enduring, three hours after I finished my shave . It's good stuff if you wanna keep the wife away for a couple of hours .
