  • Blade: Personna Lab Blue (2)

  • Post Shave: Nivea Sensitive Balm #N/A #N/A

Oro Valley is quite nice! I could see myself with a tub of this soap -- maybe even the aftershave?

It's a dupe of Tom Ford Ombre Leather, so it's a leather scent. It's sort of light and dark at the same time. Very interesting and good.

Oro Valley++

This soap caused me to seek out a sample of the Ombre Leather fragrance, and it did not disappoint.

I admit that as we leave summer (here in the northern hemisphere), I'm really looking forward to some leather and tobacco scents. I haven't tried Oro Valley, so I'll probably add that to my next coffee and bath soap order from Stirling.
