    2020-10-25, Sunday

    A beautiful gray morning...
    12° C. But it was warm.

    I would have used a gray sky soap, but I wanted to try a soap that a friend sent me.
    But a...a lavender soap!

    How is it possible to use soap with that smell?
    How can you think of sending me a soap with that scent?
    I never liked lavender and I still hate it!

    Besides, while I really appreciate the performance of these Teutonic soaps, I never got along with their scents and I was quite curious about it and, frankly, skeptical.
    As soon as I opened the jar, a couple of days ago, I didn't like the fragrance I smelled.

    Last night I smelled it again and the perception was different.
    This morning I found it peculiar, but not bad, on the contrary!
    Once lathered I could perceive a different scent from when it was dry.
    Definitely tantalizing.
    The lather was flowing and protective, as usual.

    A praise for the packaging: very German!
    A sturdy blue glass vase and a very essential and elegant label: no frills, improbable drawings which often Italians and Americans indulge in..
    I like it very much and I liked the soap as much as the scent.

    The only less positive note: the blade.
    Efficient and flowing, but not as mild as its green cousin.

    Cold Water Rinse

    Olivewood Silvertip
    J.A. Henckels Rapide
    J.A. Henckels Wedge
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk AS

    The Vintage Life Licorice Shave Soap face-lathered well with Olivewood Silvertip Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Lather Catcher razor with a J.A. Henckels Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Thank you. Indeed it is!

    Thanks, Gary. Not really outdated, though. K2 isn't even publicly available, yet.

    Very cool!

    Thank you. I have so many Halloween soaps, I have to start early.
