Nivea body shave...

Got this for cheap on Amazon. Figured, with all the reviews I read might as well give it a try.

First of all, the scent: this scent, at it's base, reminds me a lot of razorock's new triple milled soaps. I wonder if they use some of the same ingredients. Obviously, this have a slightly different top scent, though.

The soap lathered up really easily on my face, but didn't seem quite a thirsty as the razorock I just compared it to. It was very slick, albeit I felt the protection could be better. My big problem was the post shave was not only dry, but I got the chemical film feel that I've experienced only with the Palmolive shave stick. For this reason, I binned it after one shave.

As I said, it was cheap... Easy come easy go. Lol.

Midnight & Two - Provence       Lavender with a some tea tree oil nice scent.  The tins are a little small and it's filled right up but it's a nice soap so I can live with that.  It was an enjoyable shave and while it's only a few extra dollars the price point is a little disappointing for a homegrown product.

I really enjoy Soap Commander, especially 3 of their scents - this being one of them. Slickness is excellent. Fortitude mates perfectly c Serge Lutens Chergui.

Their balms are even better than their soap IMHO. [Image: 86275700ee110024b303e30e0c8578bf.jpg]

I got a jug of No. 89 (edt) last summer. Really enjoyed the nutmeg and orange on top and the rose in the middle. I wish the tallow soap were still around. I'm sure it would be one of my favorites, too.

Yes, I really like the fragrance. Unfortunately, my skin does not tolerate the EdT, but I can use the soap and aftershave.
