A fellow Montrealer (from another forum) mentioned this new shave soap from Proraso.

I saw that one coming (after seeing the Green Tea and Aloe foam on the shelves), and hopefully, they also make the cream.

It's for very sensitive skin, and does not not have camphor and eucalyptus,(and has just a bit of menthol)

Bought it 1 hour ago (just a trip to a drugstore, took me 5 minutes, hehe), tried it and love it.

Scent : the scent is similar as the Eshave White Tea cream, but not as strong.

Performance : great; slick and soothing.:drool

Cooling : not as cooling as the original soap; has a bit of menthol, and there is no eucalyptus and camphor.

VERDICT : Yes yes yes. :D

Thanks bud, that sounds interesting :happy088

Is this soap similar in consistency (and packaging) to the original Proraso "soap"

Well, same packaging, but this one is white.

Consistency is similar

Nice find, thanks for sharing! :cool: You might think about posting a review in the "reviews" section. Something else for me to add to my list. :D

This sounds like something that needs to go in the rotation. I have always liked the eshave white tea, but a lighter scent of the same fragrance would be great, plus a bit of menthol. How can you go wrong? Where can we purchase it from?

Well, it's possible to buy it locally here in Montreal.

tres interessant, Rafik. Comme je n'aime pas l'original Proraso, celui la peut-etre plus agreable. Je sais bien que Vasco est ouvert demain, donc je vais m'en acheter un.

I sent an email to shavingessentials to see if they could get some of this since they are starting to sell Booster products from Canada. Definitely sounds like one I would like to try.

From my Contact at Proraso in Italy , I asked about this soap.

Proraso soap green tea is a new product but at the moment is only available
for the Canadian market, in the next future it will be available also for
the other market.

Thank you
Best regards

That is good news, always interesting to try something in a new "flavor".
