Loaded way too much soap, so did head and face shave today with a bowl lather.
My complaints with the soap for Dammusi are already melting away with the second use. The splash is still phenomenal.
I tend to lean towards fruit scents for my personal tastes, so I bet you’re right. The citrus is just coming more forward in the splash and the soap gets more of the undertones that I’m not used to yet.
The scent has been awesome all day. The soap is more complex than the splash, so it’s going to take me a while to really get into it.
Posted this in my SorD but I’ll post here too, anybody try Dammusi yet? The scent is incredible, I wish the soap actually smelled like the splash :(
I think the actual pairing I’ll go with for this scent, in the future, is Sea Spice Lime as the soap with Dammusi splash. This is the first HoM to make me want to buy a frag.

Anybody else try Dammusi yet? Curious what people think. I absolutely love the scent on the splash, but the soap doesn’t really smell the same, it’s like the scent is blended different. I still like it, but slightly sad.

Finally trying out the SBS soap base. Good performance, marred slightly by me definitely needing to change this blade.
That said, this scent is amazing. Easily jumps straight into my top 10.

This is one of the very first soaps that I bought, and when I started I really struggled with it. Decided to give it a go today and was much more successful with some knowledge. Could probably still stand some more water, but very comfortable shave.
I think I’m biased because I’m from Texas and it just reminds me of growing up, but you absolutely cannot go wrong with Lonestar if you’re looking for another NO to try.
Lots of new software. Bought a tub/splash of SBS Bellringer (have a story for this set for a lather games day), a bottle of SBS Valedictorian splash because djundjila said it goes well with Shire, Lonestar frag, AylM Isacco cologne (I love the stupidly oversized bottles), and a bunch of samples.
I’m definitely beyond what I could ever reasonably use to completion, but collecting is the name of the game now.

Best lather to date with this brush. Still want to be embalmed with Sea Spice Lime when I die.
