B&M Lavanille. Great soap, but glad I have a synthetic brush that I don't mind staining.
Opuntia v. (Saponificio Varesino) Creed Aventus
A picture of an Aztec king or god on the lid reminds you that this soap’s namesake, opuntia or prickly pear, comes originally from central Mexico. Does the opuntia add much to the soap? I’m having a hard time telling any great difference between this excellent soap and all the other excellent soaps made by SV. All their lathers are thick, slick, and satisfying giving me all the comfort and cushion I need for a perfect shave. The finish is uniformly sublime, smooth without becoming greasy or heavy. Though Opuntia’s scent isn’t original, it’s still awfully nice. I’m happy to have the lid off the puck just to perfume the whole room with pineapple and currants. A desert island soap? Absolutely.
