It's probably because of my unsophisticated nose but I find the scent of this soap a bit of a mess.
On the other hand the performance is up to the usual Wholly Kaw standard and a great shave ensued.
Happy Shaving one and all.

Here is my newest OC razor. It is a Property of U. S. Army, 1918 Old Type. I got the head and handle ends in a junk lot. The head has a little plate wear, but the teeth are all there and straight. I made this walnut handle for it and used a 45 Auto casing to replace the ball end.
