*My first real shave soap was a C&E Sandalwood puck, over two years ago now and I believe a slightly different soap formula than this current one. I picked up a new one to try, as I've always liked the scent. Well, the lather this morning was really very nice, surprisingly good. I think I will give this one a few more spins and see how my skin does with it. Unexpected. May have to re-test the Trumper sandalwood, too, given how nice this was.
I am not getting along with this Iridium too well. I know they're good blades, but maybe not for me.

The PC Nag Champa has a nice scent: combo of patchouli and sandalwood predominates. A previous thread on this scent peaked my interest.
