Very nice scent, protection and post-shave feel in large tub

Posted by RedRover on 25th Jul 2016

The Acca Kappa LiboCedro is a high-quality croap that comes in a large, attractive, screw-top tub with a waterproof label. The croap has a pleasant scent that is appropriate for four seasons. It has a light scent. Maybe 4.5 or 5 out of ten in strength Light top notes of cedar, pine, and bright citrus fade into chamomile and powder that linger. The scent does fade after an hour or so, leaving only a faint hint of powder and chamomile. Overall and pleasing, classy, clean scent that won't interfere with cologne or aftershave. The croap loads with little effort and lathers easily with minimal water. I personally add a few drops of warm water to the tips of my silvertip badger brush as I face lather, adding more as needed. It doesn't take much effort to get a thick lather. The croap doesn't produce a huge fluffy lather, but rather a thick paste-like protective sheen with little to no bubbles. The glide is smooth and aided by the little water in your razor after rinsing between passes. The soap does not dry and become gluey. It stays thick for the entire shave. Not the most cushion, but it is acceptable and made up for by the slickness and glide. I can make passes even after I have washed off the croap on slickness alone. Post-shave feel great. Face is not dried out. Croap washes away easily and doesn't clog the brush or razor. All in all, a fine product. It is a little more expensive than most, but you get a large 200ml reusable tub that is filled almost to the brim. I believe this will last long as I don't need a lot per shave. Acca Kappa makes fine products and have been in the game for a long time. I recommend this product. If you like almond/amaretto or white musk, their other two scents are very nice too.
