Pre-shave: Hot water, Pears soap
Brush: Forgotten Art "Southern Skies" 30mm Snow Leopard
Soap/Cream: Mystic Water Jeff's Lavender
Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Kai PINK
Post-shave: Homebrew moisturiser, La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF50+

I've been neglecting this soap lately, and I don't know why. This is a lovely peppery lavender scent, not quite as full-on as my benchmark lavender, Castle Forbes. Mystic Water obviously isn't trendy around here any more, which is a shame as Michelle produces a first-rate product.

How is the scent of this soap? Does it actually smell like Earl Grey tea?

It does indeed. I actually compared it to some Earl Grey blue flower I have and it is favourably comparison. It also lathers quite well.

OK, then it's one for the shortlist next year. My last attempt at finding an Earl Grey scent was a total failure (B&M Cheshire - since when does EG have patchouli in it? ), so this is worth a look
