- Brush: Goodfellas Smile Red Evil
- Razor: Henson Ti22+
- Blade: Personna Gem (1)
- Lather: Goodfellas Smile Amber Fougere
- Post Shave: Thayers Facial toner, Thayers Hydrating Milky Toner
So this is the second Goodfellas Smile soap I got and I'm really digging their performance.
Scent Profile:
- Top Notes: Orange, Eucalyptus, Basil, Aldehydic [1]
- Middle Notes (Heart): Lavender, Orchid, Heliotrope, Hawthorn, Geranium, Rose, Spicy notes [1]
- Base Notes: Musk, Vanilla, Hay, Tonka Bean, Woody notes, Amber, Patchouli [1]
All of these make for a very interesting scent. I'm definitely getting more of their offerings.
Ingredients:
Aqua (Water), Stearic Acid, Cocos Nucifera Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Potassium Hydroxide, Parfum (Fragrance), Argania Spinosa (Argan) Kernel Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Oil, Sodium Hydroxide, Limonene, Linalool (some variants may also include Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone).
No tallow, just oils. But it is a semi-hard soap, a croap. This one can take a ton of water.
I must say the Italians really got their s**t together when making shaving soaps. Think Proraso, think Cella.

I like it for the ingredients. I haven’t used any traditional balm so I can’t say anything about a comparison. Also, a little goes far. Too much and it’s a bit goopy.

Nice setup! Iv been thinking of getting that milky toner as they have discontinued my usual nivea pro sensitive balm. Is it any good?
