I finally took the plunge into this shaving den essential, and my experience was OK-ish. Nothing too spectacular.
I’ve read/heard/watched people on how the soap stinks..and i’m not sure I completely agree. It’s not the greatest scent in the world but nothing repugnant either. Decent slickness and glide otherwise though. I bloomed it for about 30 minutes before shaving to make sure it’s ready.
I think the closest soap to Arko in terms of price and quality would be Williams Mug. Both inexpensive , basic soaps. Given the choice, i would prefer Williams Mug over it anyday because i enjoy the scent a bit more, but it’s not a huge difference.
Happy to have an Arko with me in any event and it will be part of my rotation.
FYI - Love the logo and imaging!
