Translation: Declaration Grooming just popped out a winner methinks in LAvender LAther Land
Order arrived and and tried DG's brand new "Pure Lavender" for 1st time today.
As expected from the brand, the performance was stellar with great lather, cushion and slickness.
The scent is very nice, both dry puck and during lathering, and most definitely "Lavender". To my nose it falls into what I call a "sharp" noted (in a good way) scent; not astringent but crisp with some complexity and depth to it - not the overly soft flowery trap some fall into.
The post-shave/feel (as I sit here 3 hours later) is exceptionally good with a real sense of smooth moisturized skin. There is not an overly long-lingering scent from the soap, so it is easy to complement with the AS of your choice - maybe something like Agua Lavanda, my favorite after an MdC shave, would be terrific.
Spousal Approval Meter Rating: As to the "boss", she greeted me post shave and shower with the declaration (see what I did there ) "you smell great, what a nice, subtle scent."
So, for all you lavender fans out there, this one might be worth a try for ya. Hope this info/opinion is remotely helpful to the curious masses as well.
Cheers
