What soap/cream did you use today?

Packaging doesn’t come any classier than a repurposed tub with some printer paper, a sharpie, and scotch tape.  Even though the presentation is not great, it is soap after all and performance is excellent.  I really enjoy lime but my favorite are the more fresh lime scents. Scents that are juice AND rind.  Mikes fits the bill perfectly.

Royal Fougère t. (Asylum Shave Works) garden fern

The deeper we get into summer, the better this fougère smells. No matter that the lawn is burnt a tawny brown and the spring flowers are toast, in my mind this is still the season for deep green scents, and  Royal Fougère delivers. It's neither bright nor fruity, just layer after layer of verdant shade and damp earth. An excellent summer soap.
   

I've been thinking about this one recently... and how I haven't seen anyone mention it for a while. So thank you.
I love the scent, kinda like a Juicy Fruit gum or something, right? Makes my mouth salivate.

Well why not?  Used to see L’Occitane Cade all the time but then it seemed to get a reputation of persnickety lather and a dry post shave and whoop, there it went!  I really don’t care about what others think though because my face is not someone else’s (lucky ducks)!  I believe Cade lost out because it is a hard puck that just loads slower than softer soaps.  I have always gotten great slick lather and when properly hydrated, a perfectly acceptable post shave.  And the scent!  So perfectly balanced between rustic cowboy and urban gent.  Seems so well crafted that I ought to rustle up a bottle of edp. If Cade is old-skool then I am old school.  Love the stuff.

Lip, it's the Cade a tallow soap?

I really don’t think so.  Been awhile since I’ve seen an ingredients list.  I believe like most French soaps it’s palm and coconut with Shea as a super fat.  It is on the lighter side of things.  One of the first that convinced me soap didn’t have to be tallow to be good.

Correct, not tallow. Great scent.

Yeah, agree with everything. I was upset that the last time I looked, it wasn't available. Wonder if there will be a new batch. I don't know why there wouldn't be. But that means very little in this industry.
