I hadn’t shaved in about a week so a little irritation was inevitable. But overall this was a really good shave. Hallows is one of my favorite scents of all time, and I was left with a wonderful face-feel from the base. 4.5/5

Hallows is one of my favorite scents of all time

I have the Omnibus release of Hallows but haven't used it yet. I took a chance and bought the trifecta. Absolutely love the scent. Same reaction I had to Leviathan which is the only soap I've killed in my two year wetshaving career.

I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for it. Bought it at midnight in 2016. It was sold out by 6 AM. Got a scent I loved and the thrill of the limited drop kill all at the same time. I’m pretty sure it’s why I bought everything that came out for two years straight.
