Product: Shaving Soap
(Donkey Milk)
Location: France
Let me start off by saying there’s two unique things about
this soap. One would be it’s packaging; this must have been the most miss
understood packaging in retail history. I think some wet shavers had mistakenly
pointed out it’s subpar construction without really knowing it’s true purpose
and two, the soap is made with Donkey Milk a very uncommon ingredient.
If you ever had a rubber band plane as a child, then you
know what the tub of La Savonniere Du Moulin is made of its a very light balsam
type wood. This wood is so thin it could bend and this is how the vessel was constructed
for this soap using staples to keep it all together. Also placed in the bottom of
each tub was a luffa sponge to rise the soap off the bottom. All of this was
done to help the soap completely dry.
The scent on La Savonniere Du Moulin is a light cologne
which does increase slightly when loading your brush but still remains on the light
side but very pleasant. The way the mill describes this product is as follows: organic honey, organic propolis, flowers
from my garden Good, fresh organic milk from my donkeys that I milk myself
everyday, and lots of love.
This puck is the hardiest soap I’ve ever come a cross. I
needed to submerge this in hot water for about 5 min and was able to use the loose
layers in the captain’s choice bowl. I loaded my brush with adding water as
needed creating a thick creamy lather that was off the charts. The coverage was
fantastic allowing me to go over spots with my R89 Grand several times without applying
more lather although my brush could have been used two to three more times with
the lather that was left over. The slickness and glide was present throughout
the entire shave.
So I had a great shave with La Savonniere Du Moulin. If you
like a light scented soaps, then I would recommend this one for sure. The best
part of this product is the slickness and glide along with a great post shave
feel. Some would say because of it’s high price it’s not worth the purchase but
in retrospect I’ve used soaps that cost less with poor results. May I suggest a
visit to the website they have a tool that allows you to read the site in English
if you can’t read French.
