Marlborough Barbering Såpe Refill £11.50 - D R Harris London

I was skeptical about paying this much for a refill puck, but the triple-milled lather is noticeably denser than the cheaper stuff I used before. A few swirls on the brush is all it takes, and the puck barely shrinks after weeks of daily shaves.

The cedar and sandalwood scent lingers just long enough without being overpowering. It lathers into a thick, cushiony foam with barely any effort, and my razor glides noticeably smoother than with my old soap. Two months in and the puck has barely shrunk, so it's worth every penny.

This triple-milled puck takes a good minute to load, but the lather it builds is dense and creamy in a way my others just aren't. The sandalwood is warm and woody, with that subtle spice giving it a classic, gentlemanly edge. It's my new favourite way to start the morning.
