Remember to forget me!
SV is an indulgence to be sure, but in the grand scheme of indulgences chronicled on these pages, it may not be a huge one for many.
I think that may be the underlying problem for me. It didn't feel like an indulgence.
The shaves I get from those lower priced soaps I listed, are so good, that this particular soap just feels like the same thing with a higher price tag. Higher cost with same outcome, equals less value for money. It's not a bad soap, I can just get the same feeling of luxury, performance and post shave at lower cost elsewhere.
