When I first got into this hobby Amber Fougère sounded really appealing to me, but I never bought it. Is it comparable to anything else you've tried?

I second @PorkButtsNTaters666@sub.wetshaving.social's assessment:

TLDR: Wouldn't recommend.

I don't have many fougères, so it's not rea!ly comparable to anything else I have. The scent is nice, but either too strong, or I'm reacting to an ingredient. And the base, while doing its job, is not comparable to modern artisan soaps.

TLDR: Wouldn't recommend.
