quality soap inexpensive questionable scent [SEP] i purchased an arko stick for travel to use with my the combination gave me a great bss while on the road but i am not a fan of the scent it reminds me of that old bathroom soap that ground the soap cake into your palm like parmesan cheese the smell that is have to say that i do not care for it also when you open the stick you will have no choice but to either loosely wrap it back up after use or as i do store the open stick in a plastic bag a better option would be a plastic tube with a cap naturally that would affect the price negatively these days there are many travel shaving soap options so while arko will give you a smooth shave if the scent is not your thing you can easily find something elserecommended for its shaving qualities not for the scent
