Soap Commander’s 2015 Sping Limited Edition, its scent notes as per Soap Commander ;
Lavender, Cedar, Fir Needle, Crushed Pine, Camphor, Patchouli, Hay, Tobacco, Citrus, Juniper, Vetiver, Black Tea and Wild Hyacinth
But what does it smell like?
The name is deceptive as to my nose, there’s hardly any florals, slanted more towards a fresh dry woods scent just a touch of citrus and lavender.
Coming off recently from Floid Blue, this smells somewhat similar, if a little more leaning on the fern and zero on the blue spice.
And while it already has camphor, I have decided to add in some menthol to give that fresh vibe a kickstart.
Went with the Gentle Nodachi today, paired with a Zaza.
While I do enjoy the Std Nodachi, I just prefer the feel of the Gentle Nodachi with its barely negative (-0.03mm) blade exposure shave profile.
Effortless, easy, clean, true glass faceturbation worthy BBS shave.
Stay safe
