2020-11-13, Friday A clear morning; but it was supposed to rain: meteorologists are as reliable as our Post service! I wanted a soap with an elegant scent and the Foris N° 89, for me, belongs to this category: I would see it well in an Edwardian bathroom, even without running water, with a porcelain basin and the fireplace on. Of course, it would be less practical, but I have a lot of time... The handle of the brush came well calibrated for my hands and I use it with pleasure. And today, out of curiosity, I tried it with very little soap passed on my face since its consumption is now evident. And I discovered that using more of it was just a waste. Today I've had enough of it for one pass and touch ups: exactly how much I needed. The EdT is also going down, but it's intense enough notto use much of it. The Pal continues to amaze me: I learned to use it and I regret not having learned before. But I am still young: I will be able to keep enjoying it for at least a couple of months. It's incredible the result obtained with just one pass! Sapone PS: Valobra Mandorla Sapone: Floris, N° 89 Pennello: Lab.
