What soap/cream did you use today?

Today was TFS Kathmandu.  Tiny little jar.  Awesome scent.  The scent is a Floral Oriental with the floral accord well balanced to the incense to deliver a masculine aroma.  Easy to lather, it yields a medium loft lather that is not as slick as I THINK I like but darned if it doesn't continue to offer close, protective, irritation-free shaves.

Cubebe v. (Saponificio Varesino) woody cologne

Piper cubeba, which appears on the lid and gives this soap its name, is a member of the pepper family. Nowadays it’s grown mostly in Indonesia. In the past it was enjoyed in the West as an alternative for black pepper. Its unripe berries were picked and dried and then ground into powder. They were said to taste like a cross between allspice and black pepper. Some gins and tobaccos are still flavored with cubeba, while in Morocco it’s found in pastries. For centuries cubeba was also used as an antiseptic. For instance, in the early 1900s physicians treated gonorrhea with it. Something to think about next time you swab this soap across your face.

This is a stock photo because frankly it's better than my bathroom photos.  I really like Black Tie,soaps and El Hefe, although not my favorite is a good one.  This is cured leaf vs tobacco flower but there is a lot more going on.  Black Tie always feels great on my face and offers a great finish.
