Today,,, news day!
In fact I received a soap with a scent of lavender and rosemary, similar to LPL, but more refined and where lavender dominates over rosemary and a very fine texture.
It's a Norwegian soap that I had never heard of before in Klæbu, a small village south of the more famous Trondheim (evidently Norwegians specialize in very fine textures) and with the so far ignored name: Brutalt Bra.
At first I thought that the second 'T' was a typo and I was puzzled by that name: what could it be combined with? With a Cruel Panties aftershave?
Then I found out it wasn't English, but Norwegian: brutally good!
And it's true!
Unlike LPL, it lathers with great ease and the delicate scent you can smell when you open the bowl, it intensifies in contact with hot water and the twirling brush.
A sleek and protective lather of a soap that in its INCI has only 4 ingredients: Potassium Stearate, Potassium Cocoate, Distilled Water and Essential Oils.
I really liked it!
And I completed the shaving with another novelty: an aftershave balm that I had only seen in passing, without going into detail.
And I'm fond of mine...
I wanted to use it immediately after shaving but, for me, a shave without alcoholic kick is
unsatisfactory.
So I just
Figaroed and then I applied it again.
Also this one with one of the finest textures ever tried, without any trace of greasiness and a delicate, but firm, good lavender fragrance.
Very, very satisfying shaving.
On the fantastic final result has engraved, not a little, my natural beauty...
