"Wow" is probably the single best descriptor for this product.
I bought it on a whim to tip the contents of my Shopping Cart towards Free Shipping - and boy am I glad I did. When the package arrived it smelt divine! I couldn't figure out why - 'is this suggestive selling by the online retailer who cards the package with a scent' I wondered. I unfurled the bubble-wrap and quickly sourced the culprit, a little leakage from the Razorock AS Wax. So those fragrant notes were all its doing. Wow! Even the better half loved it - and she hates most my shaving gear scents (hates the Cella and the Proraso!).
So "Wow" to the scent. But I was keen to use it in anger, and once I did I found that's exactly what it doesn't do…make things angry. I've persevered with the austere measures of Alum and Proraso Lotion - yeah the sting's supposed to build character and all but really…why do the whole man-up thing when instead you can get a better response from your skin without the fanfare. Just a small amount goes a long way. I have fairly oily skin and yet this 'wax' just sinks in, you can feel your face drinking it...and licking its lips.
Oh yeah the only 'con' and it's a pretty lame one is that this product is less a "wax" and more a "cream".
I concede it might just be a good match for my skin but this stuff seems tailored made for me - the right scent and the right result. This stuff only dropped a point because 10 is reserved for perfection and I've not been around long enough to experience perfect yet.
