This soap is really good!! Nice scent and very cold! The lather is richly creamy and slick too...
Long forgotten blade...last use was in May. Now, paired with the nice razor...gives a silky smooth and is very comfortable in 3passes for a bbs finish, would have been perfect except for a red spot! The matching aftershave was great and really icy...hahahaha!!

Good morning Cadre. Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Fantastic shave this morning. Had a whole other setup ready to go and at the last minute I saw the tub of "Velvet Wood" on the counter and grabbed it instead. Great scent and the lather the soap produces is wonderful. Great homage to the now-discontinued iColoniali mango oil soap. Three passes + touch-up with the Feather gave a DFS+ result. Finished with a splash of Skin Bracer Original (+ skin food) and a spray of Nicolai "New York" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)
