The American Soap With Italian Roots.
On March 6th 2015 Paolo announce his new soap company
exclusively on the forum called The Shaving Nook. That was 4 months ago and
things sure have taken off since then. As the grandson of an Italian barber,
shaving is in his genes! The company name, all of the scent names, and
the soap itself all bear the Italian style as a nod to his Italian heritage.
Palolo offers Agrume (citrus), which is a lime and basil blend, and Inodoro
(scentless). Also included in the line up are the same scented balms. All
of the soaps are vegan and are based in aloe vera, stearic acid, coconut oil
and mango butter.
My review will be on the “Agrume” or citrus shaving soap. The
soap is in a clear plastic 4.0oz tub with a screw on top. The labels are water
poof so no problem with getting them wet and having them fade or damage. The
tub opening is more than ample to load your brush.
This is a soft soap that loads real easy. All you need to do
is just run some water into the tub and spill it out then wet your brush and
start loading. You should see it start lathering instantly. The scent notes are lime and basil but for me
the lime is way upfront with a hint of basil. The scent strength on a scale of
1-10 is about a 5 and moves slightly to 5.5 when lathering. The scent tends to
drop off about 30min after your shave. So an aftershave with the same scent
would be preferred.
The lather was plentiful. I produced a face lather that was real
thick and creamy and produced slickness and glide that was right on target
during the entire shave with a nice post shave feel. I did only one pass this
shave but had plenty of lather left on the brush to do two more if I wanted.
So I had a great shave with Sapone Di Paolo. I do think that
using a brush with more backbone helped in created a better lather but this is
just my opinion also I would like to see more scents added to his collection.
