Inspired by Bouki I pulled out the ever-satisfying L’Occitane Cade. Easy lather. Slick. Not thirsty though.

Royal Fougère (Asylum) English Fern
Shave 36 ・ 39 g
Deep in my heart, I harbor this conviction, probably indefensible, that the only true scent for a shaving soap is fougère. What makes the fougère so appealing is the manner in which it combines notes from all the branches of the olfactory tree into one perfect harmony: bright bergamot, flowery lavender, rose, and geranium, greens galore, moss, spice, sandalwood, and a hint of something like castoreum. Royal Fougère is patterned on Penhaligon’s English Fern, which sadly has been discontinued since 2019. Until it’s resurrected, we’ll have to make do with this soap.
