Pros & Cons
Pros
It smells great, lathers well, and makes for a close and comfortable shave. The tin that it comes in now is a bit awkward to hold when i'm trying to stir up a lather. It takes a little longer to form the lather but it only seems like another minute or... Read More
The smell reminds me exactly of tanning lotion i've used in the past. Not overpowering but very pleasant. The scent was slightly subdued during the shave but still very nice.
The tin the soap comes in seems to be sturdy enough to mix in. Even survived a drop from my bathroom sink onto the floor.
It leaves you feeling soft and cuddly but still manly. One thing that may not have been mentioned in other reviews is how clean the razors rinse out. My one wish is that they made a bigger size.
Cons
The product is too waxy to be a great shave cream. I prefer products such as proraso and various sandalwood scented soaps. The lather is poor as well.
The reviews raving about the scent. The scent is awful.
Highlights
Quality
Im very happy with the shaving soap
Do not let this fool you this soap will still provide an excellent quality shave despite the different lather it makes
Get it under 20 and no wet shaver should ignore this product
The quality of shave was in a word excellent
Price
Smolder is a great name for it
Packaging/appearance
I bought this for my husband originally because of packaging and name
Competitiveness
I will preface by saying i used a fresh personna blade in my matador
A great buy and luxery shaving cream
The lather did not seem to form and suddenly explode in the bowl like tobs products would
I imagine some dudes enjoy the ritual of working up their lather and that would be a con for them but im not a beardo like that

Very worth while product does not age well

Too bad though the cool tin that it comes in is marred by a barcode sticker that doesn’t come off without leaving that sticky left over stickerstuff that is impossible to get off

I know it sound petty but it would have looked cool next to my shaving setup

The soap was very slick and did not seem to dry out at all

A tertiary effect is that my brush is shedding less probably because of the less work it has to do to work up the lather
