I buy this a year ago in a barbershop in Ireland and the soap be still with I . I shave three time a week -lrb- I like to grow a little stubble -rrb- and I would say that 60-70 % of the cake be leave . the lather be easy to get if you prime it -lrb- let the cake -lrb- and you brush -rrb- soak in water while you be take a shower -rrb- and the smell be great ; fresh , clean and sandalwood-sy . + + great scent + decent lather + longevity - you have to prep the soap to get a good lather .
