WSP OLYMPUS. Nailed the Creed Aventus scent....

Once again Lee at WSP (Wet Shaving Products) has produced another winner in their stable of soaps. This one in the Formula T base is no exception. The scent is spot on and the performance is top notch. Lather, cushion, glide and post shave are exemplary and is what is to be expected out of a top tier soap. I've put in about 4-5 shaves with it and it just flat out delivers. The scent strength is a bit better than average and it lingers and draws you in with that bit of pineapple, apples and a bit of sweet smokiness to it. Just awesome when you're applying it.

If your a Creed fan, especially for the Aventus scent, this one here should definitely be on your bucket list. The shave tonic is a definite plus also as it pairs wonderfully with a light menthol boost. Perfect for the heat.....

Thanks for the write up. I love Creed Aventus. How’s the scent strength on this one? I was considering getting stirling executive man because the scent strength was pretty good. I like pretty strong scented soaps and aftershaves.

Thank you for your thoughts about this soap, GlazedBoker! I saw the email about this new WSP Formula T scent and was curious about the scent and scent strength.

I've actually used WSP Formula T Barbershop and Tobacco in the past week. I enjoy the scents and as you said, the performance is top notch. I may continue with Formula T this week with some of the other scents I have on hand. I'm definitely considering picking up the Olympus scent as well.(Like i need another shaving soap!)

The soap scent strength to me is above average, 5.5 to 6 on a scale of 1-10. But that is so subjective pending on the individual and their tolerance or intolerance to scents. What might seem weak to one may be strong to another. The shave tonic would be about 6 to 6.5 with decent longevity and projection. No where near the strength and carrying power of Aventus but still very good for a soap and a/s splash. I can’t speak for the Stirling version but, it gets nice reviews on most of the forums.

I also have Barbershop & Tobacco in the Formula T base and they are terrific. If you enjoy those you will definitely get along with Olympus. It’s just a great scent that gets you going whether you shave in the morning, afternoon or evening. I’m even considering ordering the cologne in edp strength, that’s how good it is....

I just picked some up today.  Stopped by the shop to use my birthday gift certificate.

Lee is sending me a small sniff sample. I'm excited for it!

I got my bottle of beard oil in from Lee this afternoon. I've never smelled the original creed aventus so I can't say if this scent is very close to the original or not but in any case, it smells REALLY good. my wife likes it too. I actually like the smell of Olympus more than executive man from Stirling and I use that stuff a lot.

Thanks, I've been curious to see how this stuff stacks up against Stirling Executive Man soap and Fine Platinum splash.

Curious about how that EdP compares to Fine's EdT as well. Leaning towards picking up a full set based on the positive reviews.

Hi, just my 2 cents on this. The WSP EDP of Olympus lasts considerably longer than Fine Platinum. I purchased the complete line of Olympus, and could not be happier with the scent and performance. Thanks.

Being that I rate WSP as a top-tier soap, I may have to consider this one. I recently grabbed the set of A&E Spartacus which is pretty good, but WSP is also great stuff.
