    I know that this v15 can be a soap hungry knot, so I intentionally loaded more soap than usual. However, something was really off with the lather from this sample. It just remained thin and slightly oily. Nevertheless, it still provided enough slickness for a single pass and touch ups with the FBT. Hopefully, this is just a bad sample, and maybe I’ll try again with a synthetic knot to compare.

    Marilyn is an amazing scent that fits the theme well. I don’t know if it’s a scent that I would wear often, but I like it.
