May 2024 Acquisitions

Enjoy! I think I much prefer this handle to the TSN handle but I can’t justify it when I already have the same knot.
I’ve recently bought three Misturas. In fact, I’m conducting a month long break in period, Mistura May. The SOC handle is more comfortable in my opinion. But yet the knot is something of a lather hog. The ridge on the TSN final edition is very pronounced in comparison and as a result my hand prefers the SOC and Pegasus handles. That said, the knot in the TSN brush is special. It tops every Chubby, Best or Super, I’ve ever owned. The Pegasus has seen the single largest improvement in the last three weeks. Great fun!

Good morning, I'm trying to be on a "soap buying sabbatical" until later in the month, but this one from Lodrino has caught my eye. Can I ask how does it smell say in comparison to the GD / Aion Lavender, (which there are a couple)?.
This is only scented with Lavender EO, so I would say it’s more in line with Castle Forbes or Ethos, although all smell differently between them. Maybe this one is a bit sharp, but I’m comparing from memory.

Thanks for your response, I’ve just emailed Francesco directly regarding this and the oud & essence soaps.

Response from Francesco, “I have to apologize because I have sold out of the "Lavender Lovers" soap. But I'm preparing more of those shaving soaps. I think that within a month or a month and a half I will have it available for sale again.”
Francesco is great, he even knew you didn’t want to buy new soaps till the end of the month and therefore he doesn’t have any 😂😂
