I stand corrected. No, then I don’t think TGS currently has something unscented. Would indeed be a great pitch to them!

"The Best Way to Get the Most of Out of Our Shaving Soaps is very simple and, if followed, Will Give You A Great Result:
- Do not put water in the soap bowl, rinse and squeeze the shaving brush well.
- Start drawing the shaving soap using the brush in circular motions, you will notice that the shaving soap dries in the bowl.
- Then add a few drops of water to the shaving bowl and start, repeat this operation 2 or 3 times, until the shaving soap in the bowl has created a thick cream. At this point, the brush has correctly loaded the soap.
- Pick up with your finger in the bowl the remaining soap that the brush has not absorbed and put the soap on your face as a cream. Start the assembly in the face.
- After spreading the shaving soap on the face you will see that it dries...at this point use the secret ingredient, which is water!
- Soak the brush in lukewarm water and continue mounting in the face. Repeat this operation a couple of times and you will obtain a thick, shiny, smooth, and protective cream
- At the end of the wet shave your skin will be soft and smooth because our soaps contain ingredients that are very important for our skin"

Well, I did it a bit differently ... I shaved for so many years and I have always "fought"

I would only add a thin layer of warm "not boiling" water to the soap and then remove it completely and move on to point 2
It is essential to start with a dry brush so as not to create too much protofoam "the soap already has a drizzle of water" and swirl until you have a feeling of friction in the brush, then adjust accordingly whether to add 2 drops of water and continue swirling
