Great lather and a nice mild scent. I very much enjoyed shaving with this soap, but would have enjoyed a slightly stronger scent.

I also loaded too much soap, making it harder to get the water level right. Next time, I think I need to try with about half as much soap.

Overall, it was a really great shave.
