I’m still chipping away at this puck trying to use two grams each day. It’s a nice soap base, and it makes a good lather. If you like yours heavy and close, just drench it well and go easy on the brush work. The finish is slightly waxy but comfortable and smooth. The scent is a polite version of modern Brut. It has a clean, watery note that reminds me of an indoor pool. I shore it up with a few splashes of Brut cologne. That stuff smells like a chemical bath, but for some odd reason, it's growing on me.

Haha. Brut is for real men.  Men who just don’t have time to worry about what people may think.  Men who are kind to children and puppies but can throw a football 100 yards.  When one wears Brut, the top three buttons of the shirt naturally fall open.

You forgot to mention:

Men that stop traffic to walk elderly women across busy streets and climb trees to rescue terrified kittens.

Hell, reminds me of dad and his generation

The Laugar keeps calling my name as well. Right up there for me. Nina Overland just hits all the marks. Glad others are enjoying this remarkable soap cooker. Ragnarok this morning. Beautiful dark patchouli and cedar wood with that Mystic Water slickness. Fantastic.

I can't thank you enough for introducing me to this soap!  The slickness and the post-shave are amazing...especially considering it's a vegan soap.  Ragnarok has been in my cart the past couple days  Angel

Mike's Vetiver won't be lasting much longer.  The soap/tin are weighing in at 34.17 and I'm sure I could get another 3 to 5 shaves from it.  But today's lather, and the past couple with Vetiver, just haven't been up to the Mike's standard.  Has anyone else noticed a soap loses performance when it is nearing the end?
