What soap/cream did you use today?

Im not an A&E regular because I just don’t care for the label art.  This one intrigues me though and the label art is compelling.  Great shave and scent.

I too am one that is disatisfied with his label art direction especially when he changed some that were scents I enjoyed and wouldn't repurchase due to his label changes....

Charkalis has some edgy artwork for A&E and The Club on his labels and I can understand why some may not like it. That said, I fall on the opposite side of this. For me, the soap is top notch and I like the artwork for the most part. As with many things it is strictly a matter of taste. I certainly would not let artwork determine a soap purchase with this company.

Ethos Vanilla Safi.  Such a luxurious soap -- the vanilla, and it's just vanilla, is pure and rich.  Sybaritic pleasure to use.  And perhaps it was the long cure that explains it, but the soap base makes Vanilla Safi tie for the single best soap I've ever used.  Probably only GD SE shares that rarified perch.

You're his demographic Glenn Too many other options for me to feel I need to change my standards and wouldn't even if there wasn't. He's free to make what he wants and you're free to buy it just as I'm free to choose not to. It's all good.......well, sorta

Nice Mark, I have this inbound as the sample scent from mrdoug forced me over the edge.....

Ha ha. Definitely not into tattoos and as a septuagenarian, a little (way) too old for that demographic. I just have a wide filter for acceptable visual art. As for the unacceptable, as Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart once famously said (when wrestling with how to define pornography) I know it when I see it.

Sorry but you just defined his demographic

Neither criticizing nor stirring the pot, simply curious what specifically is offencive regarding the A&E label art?  Asking because never encountered shave soap art would consider as polarizing beyond favouring or disfavouring.  Art that insults religion or races, definitely understand the indignation but curious as Hell on this matter.  Not seeking to debate the issue; rather simply gain insight.  Please do respond.
