What soap/cream did you use today?

mrdoug · 03-19-2023, 02:13 AM

This evening I got to try a sample of Ethos Bergamoto graciously sent to me by Dave in KY .

It is a very soft cream, almost (but not quite) soft enough to be in a tube. As with the original soft soaps by Ethos, it whipped up into an easy lather - no effort needed. It would be kind of odd to talk about the quality of Ethos here, as most everyone knows and loves it. Still, I'd be remiss if I didn't say it is superb for me, as well. Post shave, my skin felt a slight bit dry, but that may have nothing to do with the soap. As for the scent, I love it. I can't claim to have ever smelled a bergamot, but I imagine this is spot on. It's sweet, and fragrant and a wonderful scent for the warmer months. I definitely plan to add this to the den soon.

Have a good evening folks. Thanks again Dave for your generosity!

Face Shave
Razor: 1966 Gillette Slim
Blade: Astra SP (1)
Brush: Mojo Northern Lights w/DG B9A+
Soap: HC&C Empire State Of Mind

Man the scent on this is a lovely masculine cologne that is bold. I wish I had the matching splash. This handle is stunning and hard to capture its beauty in pictures.

Head Shave
Razor: Masamune
Blade: Feather
Brush: DG Fae B9A
Soap: B&M Frankly My Pear

Such a great setup for my afternoon head shave. Declaration Grooming B9A is an underrated batch in my humble opinion.

Swear going to take a flyer and custom order that Pina Colada ETHOS but then reconsider it too risky. Is it really that good? Worth a gamble???
