I've been using my bar of Mike's Natural Lime Shaving Soap for a little over a month and I thought I would share my experiences (lathering, scents, presentation). The bar (which I selected over the tin 'cause it's a bit cheaper and I prefer ceramic shave bowls) pressed somewhat easily into a small bowl. The bowl has an ample wide mouth to allow the loading of my Omega 10049. With daily use, I fully expect this bar to last me between 3 and 4 months. My thoughts of this nice soap follow:
PRESENTATION My Mike's bar came wrapped in wax paper with a corrugated cardboard wrapped around the wax paper. A wrapper with Mike's branding tied the whole bar together. I really like this presentation. Incidentally, my mailbox smelled like limes for a day (pleasant, to say the least).
FEEL My bar was solid'ish and firm. However, it was soft enough to press into a bowl. The pressing took some effort of my part.
SCENT Amazingly, Mike's Natural Lime smells just like fresh cut limes. I did not detect any overly-sweet, chemical (read, fake) scents. The soap presented only pure lime. Very nice.
LATHER Mike's lathers very well. My water is on the hard side and I have no problems getting consistently great results. Through trial an error, I have been able to get produce perfect amounts of slick, thick lather with each shave.
