QED Sandalwood

Nothing to really complain about. Amazing thick and easy to make lather even with the extremely hard water I have. Smell is out of this world. True sandalwood. I shave in the morning and every so often I would get a whiff of the sandalwood. At night my wife tels me she can still smell the soap on my face. I have no need to use any A/S balm only A/S. The $17.00 price tag for a 5oz tub is really not that much considering that the tub will last you a very long time. Charles doesn't skim on the EO's either. On top of that have you any idea what the prices are lately for quality sandalwood oil? Just google sandalwood EO and you'll see what I mean.
If you love the smell of sandalwood and would like to own one quality soap? Don't look any further! Do yourself a favor and order one. For me this soap get a 10 all over the board. Period.

I have been using this soap off and on for the last 4 months. I love the scent, but the performance of this soap is just good. I seem to get more nicks using this soap than any other. I also find it difficult to get a good lasting lather. WHen I use a hot water kettle I seem to get great results, but water from the tap never seems to work well, I get one pass and have to add more soap to the brush for additional passes. The price is alittle high, it seems that you have to use alot of soap for one shave and looks like the soap won't last too long. Even though I have used it for 4 months I don't shave with it every week more like 2 a month and I am about 1/4 the way trough the tub. I just have a difficult time shaving with this soap, probably just me and my methods. I still think it is a good soap, just doesn't work too well for me.

I guess I'm the only one, but I find this scent to be extremely weak. I love sandalwood, and really wanted to love this product, but it's just "eh" in my book. The lather is also a bit on the thin side, and doesn't offer as much protection as I'd like.
