Although this English soap is very low-priced, it is so good. It has so much going for it - for example: Ease of lathering: 10/10--Fantastic and rich lather in no time. Longevity of lather: 10/10--Lasts forever if you want! General skincare: 9/10--Glycerine-based, and very moisturizing. Comfortable feeling during and after a shave. Scent: 10/10--Here is what is so beautiful, the scent is so barbershoppy and traditional. Soapy and citrusy. Price: 10/10--So much cheaper than any of the 3 T's, or DR Harris. (and so terrific!) Would I buy again: 10/10--You better believe it - this soap is a top-favorite of mine! With much respect to everyone who is a fan of the 3 T's soaps, or DR Harris, or anything else which is on the pricey side, I think this soap is so much good value, and so much more of top-quality. Erasmic is an OLD, and I mean OLD English soap brand, which has been by the "working-class", as well as low budget wetshavers in the UK. You get a great and honest performing soap, which smells lovely, lathers so well, and gives great post-shave care.
This is next on my hit list. I just need to slowdown on my AD a bit. I have the shave cream and love it. I know a lot of people are disappointed that its now made in Jordan but don't let that stop you from buying the SC too. Its very economical and lathers up like a champ.
I haven't used the soap, but I had the cream for a while - I actually wasn't a huge fan of it. Lathering was never a problem I always got lots of nice thick stuff, and you can't complain about the price, but for some reason I felt like it didn't offer very good protection during the shave, and I would always wind up with more irritation than if I was using something else...but again, this was the cream I haven't tried the soap. Just my .02
As far as I know the soap is made in the UK, and the cream is made in Jordan. I wouldn't care if this stuff was made on the moon because it's so good.
I haven't tried the soap but the cream is one of my go-to items. It's a good balance of comfy and moisture that works really well for my legs. LOVE it!
I actually got a hold of the tallow Erasmic stick, wasn't impressed Phil actually gave me a refund lol. Maybe I will give the cream a go one of these days...
Bang on there jeff just checked and its only £2.00 or less online here in the uk, with the cream slightly cheaper, i may get later in the year as i have sooooooooo many shave creams and soaps at the moment, but if I can manage to sneek some in the house without the girlfriend seeing then I'll try it sooner.
When i saw it i said to my self: "Oh my God another Wilkinson? " After the first smell i calm down a little bit,was not bad I was terrified from the Wilkinson,same color same style plastic box When i start lathering i saw that they are completely different This soap is very good,with other box and a little bit "unique" aroma will be at the top of the soaps. This is after the 3rd pass,it has quality lather even for a forth With Opec Comb DE no problem at any sector Much obliged to crackstar from whom i learned his existence.
Yep, wonderful stuff. And the stick is even better as it's back to the tallow formulation. (The puck does not have, and never did have, tallow).
