2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Very close comfortable shave today. Olympus is one of those scents that I like a lot, know the scent notes, but have no idea what I'm smelling.

Why do I like it so much. Trading a tub with another member for Night at the Pub.
It’s a very well done gourmand, and the base is great
