What soap/cream did you use today?

Felce Aromatica (Saponificio Varesino) easy green
Shave 16 ・ 79% left

This one’s very easy on the nose. It’s just clean and green. The lather’s as good as any, fairly low structure, and as thirsty as sandstone. Always gives a great shave.

I've never tried this brand I think I took a pass based on the packaging and maybe the price.  A refill would do though but it looks like they make their pucks such a size they wouldn't  comfortably fit in most mugs.  The scent sound nice and easy going it doesn't quite come through in your description so I may be mistaken by I was under the impression this was a dupe or homage as soap makers say of Azzaro Pour Homme.

In spite of its name, I don't think we can call Felce Aromatica a true aromatic fougère. It lacks the spice and heavy moss of something like Azzaro pour Homme. This soap smells mostly of citrus, sage, ginger, and fir. I don't get any lavender, coumarin, or oak moss.

Sounds really nice as is Azzaro still for me. I took that from a site that lists many of the homages may just be someone got it wrong. I think I do have a few dupes maybe some I'm not even aware of but for the most part I don't have a strong interest in these types of scents. I know I don't own one of 30+ Aventus clones.

Tried the ETHOS Tibu Sabuni creme today. Was a little trepidatious as the scent is subtle, rather bland and it hard to meet expectations coming from Safi, Vetyvert, Agrume, Succes, Greenfresh&c

Used a Paladin badger to absolutely great results. Beautiful, well balanced and cushioned lather. Literally drowned it in water and still whipped up immediately

Post shave is best yet.  If you have skin issues or hypersensativities, this is the go to!  Give it a go folk, promise you will be glad you did.

Tuscan Oud (RazoRock) Tuscan Leather (-ish)
Shave 1 ・ 100% left

This is my second tub of Tuscan Oud. The first was passed on to a friend, who immediately slicked it up, he loved the scent so much. Truth be told, of all of RazoRock’s soaps, Tuscan Oud smells the best, and works the best for me. Leather, vanilla, incense, and amber make a sweet and rich fall fragrance, and thanks to the lanolin in the mix, this is one Italian Barber soap that doesn’t leave me tight and dry. Give yourself a couple squirts of M7 Oud Absolu and you're ready for whatever the weekend brings, even if that's only decorating the Christmas tree while watching the latest episode of Shetland.

It’s a favorite.  My son built it for me.

Glad you enjoyed it Dan and most importantly it worked on your ultra sensitive skin. As far as scent goes there is no added scent and what little scent it has comes purely from the ingredients which I kind of like personally but it’s not going to give anyone a great olfactory experience but that’s not what it was developed for. It’s for folks with problematic skin issues. It’s a one off formula and although similar to my other creams the ingredients and percentages of ingredients are quite different from my other shave cremes. I’m almost out of it and I’m going to be making another bigger batch of it and I will leave some in bulk so that if someone wanted and aroma blend put into theirs I could customize it but I’d suggest using essential oils that are low on the allergic index. Oh and you want to kick up the lather a bit.. try using a boar next time. I’m recommending them for all my Cremes.

Thanks for your feedback Dan
