Review title is my boyfriend knows his bar soap [SEP] my boyfriend LOVES all kinds of bar soap!!!  he gets soooo excited when a new 1 arrives.  he really liked the fact that this 1 was charcoal... he's had many over the years and has really liked them... this 1... not so much.  he said it feels more like a lotion rather than a soap... that being said, it does lather up very well.  he said it is more of a grey then a black and he didnt like the size of the bar.  he said it was awkward in his hand, but it dirtied the floor less than other charcoal soap.  he didnt love this bar.  I hope this was helpful.
