Love Joserra’s Absolut series. Nice one Tommy!

Fougère Classique (Barrister & Mann) Fougère Friday
Shave 1

Is this the same fragrance as Barrister's Reserve Classic? I remember giving that tub away since I didn’t really like the smell. I may do the same with this Fougère Classique. What have I got against it? I smell a pungent side note that reminds me of the Naugahyde seats in an old truck that's been sitting out in the summer sun. Maybe the soap should be called Fougère Plastique?

But I have to admit that this Omnibus lather is exceptional. One gram made enough silken lather for five passes. And the slickness is otherworldly. I’m going to keep this soap solely for its performance. I hope to eventually make peace with the smell.

Bouki, like the base like you. It is my favorite base... But his scents are ok.... Meh.... Certainly not like Frank's or Mo's. I love using it for the lather quality... I reached out to him to make an unscented version. No interest.

Lime today.

I was one of the testers for the Omnibus roll out and we tried 12-13 versions for Will. It’s such a wonderful final product and knew it was special by the second or third rendition.

Favorite base it might be but I also struggle with the scents. The more straightforward offerings like Lime work really well as does the gentle Paganini's Violin which is really memorable but the more complex jars are often overdone and too busy for me.

Arctique (Barrister & Mann) cool mint
Shave 11

After spending all day under the hot sun, I was stunned by Arctique’s intense menthol blast. My sun-baked face went numb before the first pass was complete. I could have sliced off a lip and never felt it. This soap is best saved for emergencies only.

OK, so where is everyone getting Joserra's absolut soaps? I went the whole month of May without buying any shaving stuff. Gave me the jitters. I'm looking for a fix.

I would love to know the answer to this question too!  More specifically, I would like to find the Absolut Juniper Berry shave soap

The Absolut range direct from Jose Martinez in Spain. I have mine delivered to Ireland when visiting family to save on shipping but if you order enough to the States it is pretty reasonable.

Next time I am over in Europe I can pick up some if Jose  has any in stock

Who's there Igor! What is that! Cool coffret, is it the same Panama Boellis or some other variant?
