Thread: If Irritation Occures...

I recall a similar issue with Henri and Victoria Cognac and Cuban Cigars shave soap.

I believe that problem was experienced by Obie who reported it in one of his reviews. I wonder if something similar happened with this product as well.

Yes, I had a burning reaction to Henri et Victoria Cognac and Cuban Cigars shave soap. Luckily it was from a sample I had been given to try so no wasted puck. I do 4 pass shaves so no overly sensitive skin here. Really too bad as I really liked the scent and the lather.

Best to give you Canucks your way and be done with it!
Chocolate shaving soap.....Really?

Could not hurt to ask?

Man - I can’t tell if you’re trying to be hurt full or funny anymore Sharp. It comes off as spite. What does Being Canadian and giving them what they want have to do with anything? Why bring it up? And what the heck is wrong with chocolate if chocolate is what a man wants?

Hmmm. Something wrong there big fella?

Relax, man......I suppose my meaning was you might try contacting the seller/maker to alert them of a potential issue.
I reckon some other product or your money back would be forthcoming and an investigation into the problem would be looked into. Sorry about the Canadian thing....I should have said Kansasian!
We are not going to be able to fix it and your buds on B&B are not either.
Still....Chocolate shave soap sounds....Let's just say 'different'? Probably just me.

Kindof like when newbs come on the forum complaining that their new razor won't shave.
Send it back!

I don’t have any buds on B&B, but googling the issue, you’ll note they have talked about the issue there often. It was comforting to know it wasn’t just me.

As for contacting the vendor - I’ve contacted her in the past for a different reason and I found the customer service lacking. Enough to not want to bother again. And I don’t know Brad so...

You’ve mentioned that you aren’t into chocolate - I get it.

As for the Canada thing, maybe I’m sensitive. But try being a Canadian living in a red state when the President makes it known he’s not a fan... it gets old.


All said and done, all I wanted to know was what was going on. I never ran down the vendor, and I wasn’t complaining saying I needed my money back. Maybe I should, but I can’t be bothered. I will however mail it to you on my dime if you want to try some chocolate love that may or may not burn you.

Lolololol!
