Barbiere di Figaro-Mistero by Tcheon Fung Sing
I just got some Barbiere di Figaro in the Mistero scent made by Tcheon Fung Sing. Bullgoose was closing out the line and had the 200ml tubs for $5. They sold out instantly. I snagged two. This is a great croap! Nice manly scent with great cushion, and glide. It lathered very easily in my hard water.
"A harmonious blend of warm Patchouli and Vetiver combined with Mediterranean flowers aromas"
Ingredients: stearic acid, aqua, cocos nucifera oil, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, parfum (fragrances), corylus avellana nut oil, limonene, citral, buthylphenyl methylpropional, 2-methyl-3-(p-isopropylphenyl) propionaldehyde, coumarin.

Thanked: 3227Boy, that was a good buy. You've gotta have a decent inventory of soaps by now. How do you like the Grey Flannel?

Hey Bob-I will not be running out of shaving soap any time soon!
I have already started to trim the field and am going to be narrowing the Den quite a bit before long.
......then I come across a deal like this!
I like Grey Flannel a lot. I used it regularly about 15+ years ago and just went back to adding some in the Den. Folks seem to like it........Bob

I've had their hard "Dragon" soap and liked it. I likened it to a poor mans MDC. The lather has some similar qualities. While we often complain about a reformulation from one maker, there are still SO many good choices out there. To think that about five years ago the only choices I knew of were about three or four indistinguishable versions of canned foam. And Bob, if I recall the scent of Grey Flannel correctly (its been a while), I'll suggest one more soap before you thin out the herd for good - Barrister and Mann's Saeryan. These soaps have recently caught my attention and I'm loving them.

Thanked: 3227Know what you mean about soaps and good deals. I gave a few away and got a big wine cooler so we are good to go for storage of a few more. Personally I like Grey Flannel too, seems to be low key as opposed to a big brassy scent.

These are great soaps with excellent lather performance. My favorite was the Esclusivo, which is a Fougere-type scent.

Well, the first shave was not a fluke. I had another excellent shave with the BDF Mistero today. It is very easy to produce enough great lather for 3 passes after about 10 swirls of my brush. I put some hot water in the tub while I shower.
Again, I am glad I got two tubs.........

$12.72 + shipping (it will be high): BARBIERE DI FIGARO shaving soap Mistero 200ml - Yourshaving.com
Also from BdF (higher priced): Scheerzeep Barbiere di Figaro Mistero 200 ml
I used it again today and wish I had ordered more than two tubs.
