The Obie Memorial First Tier Soaps and Creams Thread.

[AndyCee]

Gentlemen,

I had eyed the Wickham 1912 soaps for a few months and finally decided to try two fragrances: Russian Leather and Citrus Musk.

These English soaps lather well; the moisture could be better. Cushion and glide are good, although the lather seems to dry too fast on the face. I really like the aftershave properties. The fragrances, which I find a wee bit too robust, are a personal choice, of course. I could not stand the Citrus Musk for its medicinal scent. The Russian Leather, however, has an intoxicating scent. I love it.

The soaps are worth the try. I am putting them in the Second Tier

Interesting, thanks for your thoughts on the soap. Personally it's a first tier soap for me, never had any problems with it drying out and the new 1912 formula has the ability to retain plenty of water without the lather foaming up or dissipating - A characteristic that i normally look for with soaps. Also i love the Club Cola scent, it's just like the small coke bottle sweets you get given when you're a kid.
