Saponificio Varesino 'Desert Vetiver' - My Favourite Mass Produced Soap 

Thanks Chris, you can't really go wrong.

I've never used any of their non-shaving products. I probably should though

I haven't tried the 70th anniversary, would you describe it??

@@TheVirtualGroomroom absolutely Jack. The 70th anniversary is essentially SV’s unofficial take on a really well known and popular aquatic fragrance; Aqua Di Geo. It’s a very fresh, aquatic scent with a what I would describe as a light citrusy base. It’s very much in the typical style of Italian colonia aquatic scents. IMHO I actually very much prefer SV’s interpretation of the scent in both the after shave and soap. It’s actually has a cult following a little bit and it was my first soap of SV and will always go back to it. They haven’t reformulated it into the 4.3 as it’s still the 4.1 base but it’s still amazing. Not quite as creamy and luxurious as the 4.3 but we are really splitting hairs at that point considering the price point and I bought it when their pricing was considerable lower. And since they came out the EDP they have completed a set. It’s quite truly a unique scent that’s well praised. Barber Dave is a brand ambassador of company and his video on the soap might help shed some light on it! It’s just an iconic scent for those who’ve used their products. Very much how Woolfat has a original and unique soapy scent. Wish I could latter that thing better so I could use it more. Hope that helps. Cheers from a cheeky Irishman to a Englishman.

I think so too, it's definitely not cheap.

It is a beautiful looking razor, Good thing it shaves well too

Nordost is great!

@@TheVirtualGroomroom I really enjoyed it 👍🏼quite a lot, Will did amazing Job on it. Alan H

That's really the biggest downside, a set of this is around $80 and that's very expensive. The performance is unquestionable though

This is certainly produced in higher numbers than any of the artisanal products. The only limit it has is cost.

Thank you for the compliment. Yeah I think I could do that, I'll put a video together.

@@TheVirtualGroomroom no worries thanks so much mate looking forward to it :)

@@TheVirtualGroomroom hello mate I know you to be a man of your word so just checking if you are still making the lather tutorial video been waiting awhile really looking forward to seeing it

Yes I would say they are identical.

Duly noted

I'd say this is a little drier then Grey Vetiver

Probably this one honestly. How about you?

@@TheVirtualGroomroom Still trying to decide where to start with SV. None of the scent descriptions really jump out at me though. Desert Vetiver, Felce Aromatica or Cubebe, most likely...

Hey Calvin!

That was plenty of it in this video. The lather was very well hydrated if I do say so myself
