Love this very nice fragrant scented soap! The lather was really creamy and slick enough...
The shave with this razor after refreshing it through the Naniwa 12k then stropped on buffalo leather was much more smoother and comfortable. 3passes for a dfs result without any issues. The aftershaves were really nice too...

I've only recently discovered the easy mode shaving experience of the Henson razor. Honestly, I'm not sure I've ever been able to get a completely irritation free BBS shave with so little effort. The Kai blade seems to be a perfect pairing for this razor.

This is my first use of Chiseled Face. I was surprised how soft it is, definitely a croap. The amount of lather it produces from a tiny amount of soap is impressive. I added a lot of water and could have kept going. The scent isn't for me but I'll definitely be trying more of their products.

Just an all around fantastic shave. 10/10. I hope you have a great day!

Hello Cadre! Hope you're having a great weekend.

Gotta say, Fine's new shave soap isn't bad in its own right. It just had the misfortune of following their excellent triple-milled pucks. Though not as cushioning as the old ones, this soap produced a very slick, very fragrant lather. Finished with some AdP Colonia aftershave balm and a spray of AdP Colonia EdP.

Hope you're having a great weekend. :)
