Hey All,
I recently picked up a 3.75 oz puck of old spice shaving soap sealed in the plastic wrapper, and notice that the bottom of the puck appears to have some spots of darker yellow/orange discoloration. I notice that the white cardboard inside the box is a little hardened and discolored as well, which seems to indicate it might have been stored in a damp location. I am wondering if this would indicate that the soap has gone bad, and if I should expect the performance to be poor? The soap has a relatively pleasant smelling odor from what I can tell while its still in the package, but I'm trying to decide if its worth it to open this one or not. I have never seen a discolored puck like this, and won't bother using it if the lather or shave quality would be expected to be subpar.
