lather volume & speed, glide and slickness, foam endurance, moisturization
and cushioning are of the superior standard i expect that comes with phoenix shaving.
you only need to swirl your brush from the container for 5-7 seconds, and explosive, thick lather is on the way in another 30 seconds or less in your shaving bowl.
PAA (phoenix artisan accoutrements) imo is the gold standard of what a shaving soap should be.
scent: came exactly as described. if you like pumpkin spice with a bit of wood, burnt sugar and some bourbon, this is for you.
my only regret? not getting this sooner. i'll def be trying out many more PAA soaps in future purchases.
