Wonder how it compares to the new Musgo soap by Ach Brito ?
Wonder how it compares to the new Musgo soap by Ach Brito ?
Musgo Real Classic and Mogno have almost everything in common: same manufacturer (Ach. Brito), same ease of latherability, a very close ingredients list. Scent profile is magnificent on both, but much different.
Musgo Real Classic is, in my opinion, ever so slightly better in terms of richness and density of lather. But again, these differences are minimal and I think many wet shavers probably would not even notice them. I say so because I know I am a perfectionist, a pernickety person and often split hairs. The true reality is that both are FANTASTIC and both are worth keeping in the den. Absolutely.
Saponificio Varesino? Just as great, but with many complex scents, beautiful tins and matching bath soaps, after shaves and colognes.
I had a similar experience with Arko. I actually like the scent, but something about the soap gave me a razor-burn like sensation the first few times I used it. I put the opened stick on a shelf for a long while before trying it again. No more skin irritation, and it's among my favorite soaps now.
Well, there is the cost factor:Here was Marco's perspective from a few days ago. Someone else (can't recall who) did a comparison review with similar conclusion. That said, the best way to find out which performs better for you is to buy both.
Soap | Cost per 150g (refill) |
---|---|
Mogno | $6.93 |
Musgo Real | $21.28 |
Saponificio Varesino | $29.53 |

That looks like regular bar soap. The Musgo shaving soap is round.

They are part of the same company. Claus Porto is the luxury side of the business. The Ach. Brito name is used for more everyday stuff. Somewhat similar, but not identical products.

Nope. The Ach Brito Musgo linked by @Doti B is a shaving soap; I enlarged the picture (below) and it says "Sabonet de Barbear".
