Black Ship Grooming Co. Siren's Song Artisan Shaving Soap, 4oz - Limited Edition

Bought this one as one of my first shaving soaps, didn't really what products I should get and how to use them well since I was a beginner in this world of classic wet shaving. what made me pick this one up was the theme of this brand, I really love pirates since the moment I watch "Pirates of the Caribbean's". After I got the package I tried this soap first, what I can say is that Siren's can bewitch very easily, in the first moment I opened the jar I fell in love with her smell the complexity and the layers she has, made me to dive into her and know her more, the more I used the soap I discovered new side of smell that I might have not noticed in the last shave. I can say that, this is in my top shaving soaps.

Excellent soap. Love the scent and paired with the aftershave splash its a winner. Soap lathered sufficiently on my face, but it was very slick and protecting at the same time. Even clean up pass had some residual slickness to it even though visible soap was gone. Very pleased with the scent and performance of this soap.

This is good stuff. Lather pops up very quickly. After using it, I can see why Black Ship recommends NOT blooming their soaps -- it is entirely unnecessary. Lather is high-volume and very slick. I usually prefer tallow-based soaps, but I found this formula to be an excellent performer. The scent (to my nose) leans toward the floral notes. It is quite pleasant, but I am not detecting much in the way of fir or patchouli. Still, I liked it and will enjoy using it. The matching aftershave is consistent with the soap, scent-wise.
