    Default Just got new Proraso white

    I ordered this on saturday so I wasn't expecting it until tomorrow. Imagine my surprise when I got it today. Looks like I'll be using this for my am shave!

    I love the scent, so I'm pretty excited to try it out.

    If you love the scent then I'm sure you won't be disappointed with it. The lather is easy to make and performs well. This is second only to Cella on my list of favorite soaps.

    I agree - it's a really nice soap.

    I really struggle with the smell though. If they made it in Almond then it would be an absolute winner in my book.

    First shave with the new soap last night.

    I enjoyed the lather and the scent of this. It did seem gentle for my skin.

    I had a nice 2 pass shave.

    It's got a mild, fresh and soapy scent. Some of the eucalyptus is there, and I can also smell the tea they are putting in.

    I've been continuing to use this and I'm still very happy with it. My skin doesn't get irritated as easily as with other soaps.

    I would almost call it unscented. It is very protective and gentle ( just like you'd want from a sensitive skin soap, but the scent is super light.

    I use proraso as my baseline to judge all other shave soaps off of. If its better, i will more than likely get another tub/tube. There is really no other soap that I have encountered that works as well in hard & soft waters during travel.
