I'm doing it.
I've had a stick of Arko shoved into an old deodorant container for a while now. I tried using it that way, but I don't like applying the (dry) soap directly to my face, so I took it out and mashed it into my Seaforth mug.
I shaved with it yesterday and today, and I'll continue with it until it's gone, or until August is over - whichever comes first.
I don't much care for the scent - it's a bit like a lemon cleaning product - but that's not enough to put me off. The performance is excellent, with a lot of lather generated and wonderful residual (water-only) slickness left behind, which makes up for the scent. I think I'll experiment with "blooming" with a bit of Pinaud Clubman to change (cover) the scent and see how that goes.
Who's with me?
