I wouldn't pay 25$ for an unscented soap. You tell me if it well worths it.

Had a little chat with Sri. He thanked me for reporting the spelling error and his shipments will include a note which mentions the spelling error will be addressed in future versions of the label.

He must include a note too that will mention that the slickness won't reflect the price of this base. I mean, slick enough for a 10$ soap, but not THAT slick.

To be fair though you've not tried it yet, none of us have.
Of course, but the Donkey Milk wasn't something that wow me. And I strongly believe that he is targeting only on an even greater post shave feel.

If I want such a great post shave, I will use Cerave Cream after my shave without paying 25$ for an unscented soap. Sri made a foul here.

I agree, I was talking more about slickness than price as I do think it's expensive. And I also agree about post shave but then I've never been that bothered about it as I use a nice moisturiser after.

It's always been the scents that bother me most about WK. Irrespective of the performance, which I've always liked, just never found a scent that I really enjoyed. That's sort of why I bought the unscented, test this base without it being paired to a scent that isn't great.

Exactly this. I THINK and it is my opinion only that even the best soap base with the fragrance included shouldn't cost more than 20$.

King of Oud maybe a tad better?

No clue, I'll find out soon I guess. His Donkey Milk base was an elite base in my opinion, but it wasn't one of my absolute favourite bases. His Fougère Mania label is easily in my top 3 of best labels in 2019 though (apart from the spelling error).
Elite where, in post shave or overall performance? Was it clearly slicker than anything you have tried before?

It wasn't bad. I didn't mind the bourbon one but, again, compare it to a lot of the Ariana scents and so many of those just stand out and smell great.
Ariana Scents linger after the shave always. Hehe, do you think @CobraX doesn't know this? He doesn't know where to store the soaps from this brand! 7 or 8 soaps in his den, definitely tells me something. Cobra is a picky guy like myself. Leaves nothing in luck. And like me he tends to prefer even more US soaps.

But.. I can't convince him to order a Southern to see the real slickness. :)

I've tried 3 samples so far:
  • King of Oud: the best one out of the three, but still a subpar scent in my opinion.
  • Man from Mayfair: just plain bad.
  • Merchant of Tobacco: worst scent I have ever smelled, it's even so bad that I make jokes about it. I often say that if I ever end up in a coma, they just have to put the sample under my nose and I'll instantly wake up and start cursing.
So yeah, Bare Siero it was for me.

If I remember correctly I found everything pretty elite, but post-shave feel was the true star. But I've got very limited experience with his Donkey Milk base.

It's getting a bit crowded on this shelf yes.
