Grooming Dept Soap. Crazy good post-shave feel... But How?

thanks for the review and all the comments. I didnt like reading about the funk issues ... um gross. lol
every time i am in a buying mood this stuff seems completely sold out so they are saving me money i guess.....some day...

 

New releases coming out this Sunday, the 28th @11am pacific time. If anyone misses this release, there will be more of the same within a week at WCS. Gear up......

 

How would you compare GD to Stoylin? Both of them have similar names among their arsenals(Coniferous, Conifer)

 

I would put Grooming Dept way above Stirling. Nothing against Stirling, Rod & Mandy are great people, make quality products for afordable prices. The performance of GD is one of the best soap bases available IMO, although stock is limited, he is planning on releasing more soaps soon.

 

Well, I had completely forgotten about my order with GD that I placed about 2 weeks ago. And since for the past couple of days I’ve been on a hot streak with Lisa’s and the great performance from them as of late. Guess what shows up in my mailbox today? Yup, 2 tubs of GD, Flight and Incense&Rose to be precise. I’ll put them on hold until the weekend for now. I’m liking my shave with Lisa’s for the moment.....

 

Barbershop. Just an excellent performer on its first outing. The lather is rich and dense that is equal to GD’s Tallow based soaps. Scent is a bit citrus with Bergamot, Lemon and some Grapefruit front and center. Has a bit of woods and a light flower note that all blends in well.

Performance is well, top notch. I have a few of his Vegan soap bases such as Magnolia, Basique and Voyage and have enjoyed the performance on all three. This one here though beats them all, hands down. Like I mentioned before, it’s just as rich and thick as GD’s Tallow offerings and loves H2O just the same. Post so far is on par with the best I’ve ever experienced, Tallow or Vegan whether it be GD’s own or someone else’s. How it was done I have no idea and seriously can care less. It is just an excellent soap that not only reaches the bar, it surpasses it and sets a new standard on what a Vegan soap couldn’t do. Yes, Vegan is not supposed to be equal to a great Tallow soap. At least that’s what I thought. Barbershop Vegan in Janus formula has made me rethink the Tallow vs Vegan debate all over again. Yes, that good......

 

What a shame no Aion in EU.
Great news are coming.
