Continuing my series of soaps from the Sharpologist article, I picked Wholly Kaw’s Monaco Royale this morning:
Top notes: Lavender, Bergamot, Neroli, Petitgrain
Middle notes: Oakmoss, Cedarwood, Tonka Bean, Ambergris
Base notes: Guaiacwood, Agarwood, Vetiver, Sandalwood, Labdanum and Musk
And the ingredients in the tallow version, which is what I have:
Potassium Stearate, Sodium Stearate, Aqua, Donkey Milk, Glycerin, Potassium Tallowate, Sodium Tallowate, Potassium Ricinoleate, Sodium Ricinoleate, Potassium Shea Butterate, Sodium Shea Butterate, Garcinia Indica (Kokum) Butter, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Butter, Lanolin, Fragrance
As expected, the soap performed very well, and my Edwin Jagger synthetic brush had no difficulty in generating a good lather. My Feather AS-D1 with a Feather blade made short work of the stubble, and a splash of Floris JF finished the job. Fine shave.
