Off the soap puck barely any scent but during lathering the scent came out... a really nice tobacco scent but just too mild. I tried really hard to smell but it's just not strong enough. The lather is rich, creamy, and slick though. The initial impression is very nice aromatic tobacco soap but wishes it was stronger. Perhaps gotta get the matching AS.
Shave with razor paired with this blade was surprisingly very good. Crisp, smooth, and very comfortable for 3passes resulting in a nice close mostly bbs finish. Excellent aftershaves. Rating 10/10! Nice soap and excellent razor/blade

What's the date code on that Gillette Tech? Looks like early 70's.
