It has a nice, musky scent and lathers commendably.I can only imagine how nice that Valobra is. I recently found a rare stash of Valobra Fougere (my favorite) soap at an Australia retailer (VSHOD), and got what I could....they didn't have any sticks left. The optimist in me wants to believe that the parent company of Proraso who purchased Valobra will indeed be true to their word (i.e., Press Release) and keep Valobra going; but the realist in me (after more than decade of experience working on mergers & acquisitions) feels certain that Valobra was purchased to grab their assets and take it off the board.....I'm especially convinced of this since they've let every single retailer run out of stock well before C-19 hit. I hope I'm wrong, because I REALLY like their soaps.
