Ach. Brito Mogno, a new Old School classic

Thanks for the review and follow up posts everyone.

You got it, Sir! My funny joke was to say that Musgo Real and Musgo are to me EXACTLY the same, under every aspect.

Mogno is very similar to the two above, but with a slightly different formula and a totally different scent.

I have so much soap but may perform an experiment to see how much it will actually cost to get some into the UK. It’s the potential £8 Royal Mail charge that will hurt most

Sir, are you referring to Custom Taxes?

My shipping from Portugal to Italy cost me around €12 with TNT, with a parcel weighting up to 1.5 Kg. That is way I put into the same order 3x pucks of Musgo shave soap + 3x bars of Musgo bath soap.

Thanks Marco for the impressions about Musgo. I have only one regret, I hurried and bought 5x Mogno. Now what do I do, buy Musgo too? One question Sir: do you choose the new Musgo or La Toja? It's cheaper for me to buy La Toja or Tabac stick, but ... I don't know, curiosity ...

Gets a bit complicated when shipping to the UK now though.

Agree. I'd say wait a bit until there is some clarity with the new regulations post Brexit, and maybe some retailers might stock it.

All Ach. Brito soaps are SUPERB and worth having, IMHO. If you can buy the new Musgo, buy it without hesitation - it gets my full endorsement.

Now, I have my eyes on the new Haslinger V2.

What’s the differs between v1 & v2 Marco just out of curiosity

 

[Doti B]

What’s the differs between v1 & v2 Marco just out of curiosity

Difference even

V2 is the latest formula with upgraded performance and outstanding post shave feel. In the ingredients list it feautures Potassium Cocoate and Sodium Cocoate.

 

[Doti B]

I’ll have to check mine then. Do you have the full ingredient list ?

 

[Doti B]

Does this match with the B2 or V1

That's the current version. The previous one was a tallow soap.

 

[Doti B]

According to @Marco there are two vegetal versions V1 and V2. Just trying to work out what I have

V2, Sir. Enjoy!

 

[Doti B]

Grazie Mille @Marco. That’s what I was hoping

Anyone in the us or Canada stocking the new Musgo?—I will be picking up a few pucks to complement my mogno once it’s available.

I keep looking but I haven't found anybody yet. Interestingly, it seems like many places who stock Mogno are out of stock. With any luck they'll pick up some pucks of Ach Brito Musgo when they resupply.

The only place here in Europe where I have found the new Musgo soaps is directly from the Ach. Brito web site Ach.Brito | Loja dos Sabonetes - AchBrito - https://achbrito.com/pt3/ Shipping with TNT took only 2 days from Portugal to Italy!

Musgo is selling at 5 euros per 100g puck, that's much cheaper than I thought, maybe less than Haslinger. Surprising given the ingredient list which is so close to the Musgo Real shaving soap.

Too bad I have so much soap stockpiled, it's purely academic for now!
