Excellent lather from the soap. Beautiful scent, rich and creamily slick!!
Shave with razor paired with the well-used blade (stropped) was good. Generally smooth for 3passes without any issues for a bbs to dfs result. Not as efficient this time but a very enjoyable session.

So very happy to be back at using soaps at my discretion. I had been waiting to try the sample of Irisch Moos until I could pair it up with CBL SIR Irish, and today was the day. Very good scent combo. First shave on the Shumate Peacemaker was excellent. That thing cleanup to have a laser sharp edge. Super smooth BBS today.

Excellent soap qualities. Thickly creamy and slick with a super aromatic scent!! Love this soap!
Shave with razor paired with the blade was really nice. Smooth and comfortable for 3passes without any issues for a mostly bbs result. The aftershave is excellent. Very enjoyable shave session.
