That soap makes a wonderful lather, and the snakewood brush’s knot has a light and fluffy touch, very pleasant to feel when the knot is puffed full of warm and fragrant lather. The Fine Marvel is quite a good head, and mounted here on a heavy UFO bronze handle, it did a fine job. A splash of Bathhouse aftershave was a perfect finish: light and summery.
I’ve noted before that this aftershave seems to be based on a stock item. I say that because the ingredients are the same:
Organic Aloe Leaf Juice, Phenoxyethanol, Witch Hazel Water, Malic Acid, Citric Acid, Tartaric Acid, Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, DMAE Bitartrate, Glycerin, Organic Alcohol, Organic Sugar Cane Extract, Organic Bilberry Fruit Extract, Organic Sugar Maple Extract, Organic Orange Peel Extract, Organic Lemon Peel Extract, Organic Cranberry Fruit Extract, Organic White Willow Bark Extract, Tea Tree Leaf Oil, Bergamot Peel Oil, Tea Tree Leaf Oil, Roman Chamomile Flower Oil, German Chamomile Flower Oil, Geranium Oil, Polysorbate 20, Polysorbate 80, Organic Alcohol, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate
A gallon is $35, and that would make 32 four-ounce bottles of aftershave. You could get some bottles and a fragrance oil and make your own version of aftershave for gifts. Search for Boston Round bottles or French Squares. Frosted glass would be handsome. Note that lids are often sold separately.
