Thread: What, exactly, is wrong with VDH?

As I use basics (and always uber with Williams), I can say the scent of VHD is not to my personal taste.
However, like Williams, It can be awesome with 4 drops of glycerine!
I lean toward Poroso and Razorock these days. I feel they are as thrifty as cheap pucks(and MUCH better!), in the end! JMHO

It was my first soap and most of the time it is my go to soap for shave testing fresh honed razors.
A little water on the puck before showering and the brush just picks it up most easily when time to shave arrives. And yes, I do add Fru-fru from puck to puck and also a bit of glycerin when I melt the puck into the coffee mug i keep it in! I just add a new puck to the dregs of the last one and microwave the lot.
Not high buck but a solid performer at any price.

Never tried it but I surely will now. Thanks for the tip!

I really like VDH. It lathers up very well on its own or is great for making uber-lather.

I have tried some of the $15 a puck soaps before, the stuff some rave about, but couldn't get a good lather from them and tossed them.........I've yet to toss a puck of VDH.
