Outstanding soap. I also bought the 1K block. It's gonna take a long time before I finish it. It's what I pretty much use daily. I regard it as one of better soaps out there, and currently my favorite to use.

It is a good soap, makes a nice lather, but not a fan of the smell.
Buy a small tub and test it.
If you want to cut to the chase, buy a jar of Martin de Candre (MDC), yea, it’s pricy, but a jar will last at least a year. You can’t beat the lather and a very nice sent. I like the original lavender.
Now there is a life-time soap, I have 4 or 5 jars in my soap cabinet.sharptonn and markbignosekelly like this.

Only the DEA gets to use the term ‘kilo’ in the good ol’ US of A. For the rest of us, use of the metric system is strictly off limits.

It's a quality soap but nothing to write home about. The are a multitude of better soaps out there. The big block lasts forever. I finally threw mine out I had it so long.

Decent soap but I did not like the scent.

Both Valobra and Vitos are available in 1 kg (2.2 lbs for our friends in the US

) packaging sizes.
Valobra in that size is hard to find, but it does exist, and is in my opinion superior to Cella.
While I never had any issues with Cella in this respect - and my last, slowly diminishing 1 kg block is several years old - there is also anecdotal evidence that Cella can go bad.

When I dumped mine it had turned a nasty color and just didn't look good though the scent was unchanged. Originally Posted by beluga

When I started wet shaving the idea of purchasing a kilo of soap was strangely attractive. After getting my lathering skills sorted and using up a puck or two of soap, I realized how ridiculous of a purchase that would be. JMHO
