Glad you liked the soap! I received my Moarteen yesterday, so I'm looking forward to using it this weekend when I have more time to shave.

For the April installment of the Buena Vista Wetshaving Social Club, we are shaving with Areffa Soap's Phantom of Kyiv. This is an artisan soapmaker from Ukraine. Very creamy lather and a decent, mild scent.

I've also enjoyed their scents The Blackest Night (a dark, woody fougère) and The Discoverer from the samples I've tried.
