Right off the bat, I have to say that I was blown away by this soap! In my opinion, the scent is simply outstanding! It's inspired by Danger Pour Homme by Roja Dove. If you know who Roja Dove is then you know that he's had a long career and is a much-loved perfumer. Anyway…

This scent is just divine! I'm really in love with its smooth and sexy qualities. It's almost like a dark aphrodisiac with its creamy floral and citrus notes. It's sort of a vintage, classy love potion. I won't say that it's loud but you won't go unnoticed.

I do also appreciate the fact that this release is meant to honor those that are, or have been impacted by Dementia or Alzheimers. I have been impacted by these diseases indirectly and can tell you they are really hard to deal with for everyone involved.

The honor is also meant for the man on the label, Mr. Bruce Willis who is currently battling frontotemporal dementia. I honestly love this man, and the movies he's started in. How can you not? And if you'd didn't already know, the label is based on the movie "12 Monkeys". Which every sci-fi fan should see if they haven't already.

My shave was very enjoyable and smooth sailing. The Tech razor was mild but efficient due to the Nacet. With its "psycho" moniker I thought it rather fitting for this shave. Don't you think?

Thanks for reading. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. And enjoy your shaves.
