I mistakenly bought two bottles of this thinking it was the 4711 aftershave (blue color). I was pretty disappointed but read some guys used this as aftershave so I thought I'd give it a try. I went from trying to use it up to actually enjoying it. I find it a bright uplifting scent. Its stronger than the 4711 aftershave & has some bite but its not overpowering. I use both now.
With a classic and warm scent profile, I prefer to use this soap on cooler or rainy days. Something about it brings to mind holidays with family. A thirsty soap which produces a great lather, slick cushion and thick buffer. Leaves my skin feeling smooth and well conditioned. The amaretto scent pairs well with woodsy aftershaves or spicy colognes.
This is a top tier soap in my opinion, and performs as well as any soap I have tried to date. Will likely be in my home for as long as I shave.
I find the scent of this soap to be slightly medicinal yet pleasant. Soap lathers very well and provides a nice slickness and good buffer. Compares favourably to many higher priced soaps. Has a nice cooling and soothing feeling due to the eucalyptus/menthol. A good, invigorating shave - perfect for a hot summer evening.
Who knew a comb would be so good!
It’s a GREAT comb ..
