This particular DG soap has always been wrong. It does not lather properly at all.
The end resulting lather while it has perfect slickness and scent (although inspired by PDM Layton it's nowhere near tbh).
It has a houmous like texture, grainy, not smooth and no shine. Like a thick cake batter.
I have persevered with this soap all the time I have had it, I do not like its off white brown lather either.
So in the bin it has gone. I have no problems with my other DG soap, this must be just a bad one.

It looks horrible >

The Blutt is up there for me, so smooth and efficient.

Razor: Blackland Era
Blade: Astra SP, 3rd use
Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia
Bowl: 3D Printed Bowl
Preshave: PAA Cube Unscented Soap
Soap: Proraso Wood And Spice Cream
Aftershave: Proraso Wood And Spice Cologne
Balm: L’Oreal Men Expert Reinforcing Aftershave Balm
Additional Care: Osma Laboratoires Alum Block

And another night and day shave to the previous days attempt back to smooth and sublime! Only going to prove it was most likely the twat in charge of the razor who was in a rush that as the issue yesterday, not the razor! The Proraso Wood and Spice scent is a delight that lasts all day, and a very underrated soap and splash.
