La Fougère Parfaite (Wholly Kaw) chilled fougère
Shave 24 ・ 65 g left

Yesterday I picked up another book, Rafael Sabbatini’s Captain Blood (1922), a swashbuckler in the grand old tradition. The subtitle is “His Odyssey.” Taking that as an omen, I’ve decided to set out on an adventure of my own, revisiting every soap in the hoard and reporting on its condition. Currently my collection stands at 150 soaps, so this journey will take a few months. I figure I’ll make it back to the top of the rotation by the end of June.

The first stop on my grand tour is Wholly Kaw’s Fougère Parfaite. The fragrance – a take on Brut aftershave – is quite mild and gets lost in the lather, not really what I hoped for in a ‘perfect fougère.’ But the shave itself is especially smooth and comfortable due to the donkey milk and other emollients. I added a drop of menthol for a refreshing chill.

Interesting Sir Bouki as I have seen you more than once say the scent is light on yours. Was it stronger before and dissapated? Mine is quite strong so I'll count myself as fortunate and will get to mine soon as well. Looking forward to the Bouki Soap Tour !

Concurred; mine a monster projector

Mike's Natural Soaps - Unscented

Just got this in. Excellent shave as always. Unfortunately for me though, it picked up some of the scent of one of my pet peeve scents (Barbershop) at the source. Glass half full: I'll throw some essential oil on it for my future shaves. Maybe that's a full glass.
