Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

It's always a treat when I come back to this soap after some time away. It is to me possibly the greatest soap ever. No scent but incredibly thick and slick lather built with the Phoenix Shaving synth synth for two passes (plus touch-up) with the RazoRock Game Changer and I finished up with alum, and the matching aftershave lotion & talc.

Hope you have a great day. :)
