I'm grateful for the opportunity to have made this soap. Thank you andrewjs18 and everyone in the wetshaving community who bought this soap.

Yes, Lusso base is that good for me too.  You finish your shave, finish your clean up, feel your skin, and it's like you never shaved.

Does ANYONE else have a soap theyd sell? I missed the one Jay was selling unfortunately. I really dont care if it's used or new. I just love Chypre scents and want this to be my first Grooming Dept soap.

Could you please share your take on the scent strength of this soap (on a scale of 1- 10)?  Thanks!

I'd say it's mild to me...maybe a 5-6 out of 10. that's perfect for my preference.

I just shaved with the Chypre Vert - DFS 2018 Tallow + Jersey Cow Milk Shaving Soap and all I can say is WOW!!! A little bit goes a long way. You can add a ton of water, Slickness and post are wonderful. I have tried a number of his formulations and I love them all but this one was really even more impressive for me

Another fantastic shave with Chypre Vert.  Now it's off to the two year old grandson's birthday party.

forgot to post these photos the other night...this was just the left over lather from the brush after a quick test face lather. I've never used any grooming dept soaps before so definitely wanted to give it a try before shaving with it...

Is Chypre Vert's scent inspired by or somewhat similar to one of Givenchy's fragrances?

This question has been pressing my mind since I recall reading a forum or social media post where Chypre Vert and Givenchy were mentioned, but I cannot find the post. If anybody knows, please leave a comment, thanks!

I do know this by far greenest freshest soap scent ever encountered and not a big scent guy. To me as though guerlain, creed and pens had a tryst and gave birth to fantastic base soap
