I picked up a box of SV last week at Pasteur's. Finally got to give it a whirl today.
GEAR
Saponificio Varesino Aromatic Fern
Wolfman OC X-Mild
Gillette 7 O'Clock Blue
Omega Beech Boar
HoneyGlide Pre (I made a new batch)
Alum block
Thayer's Superhazel
Speick ASB
NOTES
Lightly bloomed during shower. Loads easily for a hard soap. Takes some time to make a shave-ready lather. Scent is (to my untrained nose) a classic fougere of the '70s variety. Outstanding cushion, excellent glide, good residual slickness.
RATINGS
Scent: 8 (Wish it smelled more specifically fern-y but still smells great.)
Cushion: 10 (If you cut yourself using this soap, consider growing a full neck-beard.)
Glide: 8
Residual slickness: 7 (Somewhat better than most veggie soaps.)
Overall experience: 9
If you like ________ then you'll love SV: Tabac (SV smells so much better), I Coloniali Mango, MdC
