The Yaqi performed better than expected, my first impression was to much backbone, but in use it is not that noticeable.
The Mama Bear, great scent, not strong enough, but i am a bit peculiar in that regard. I had some trouble getting a good lather, more water needed to be added, it is almost as thirsty as a Stirling can be ;-)
The GCC Green Vetiver is a very nice scent, not enough staying power, but for the time it lasts a very good composition.

Quite rare for me to shave two days in a row. Just barely enough stubble for a 2 pass shave.
Had some trouble with the lather drying and disappearing on my face.
Probably an incorrect soap/water ratio. Lathering itself in the bowl is effortless with Mama Bear. Had to reload halfway the shave. Maybe I’m getting too much used to my non-glycerine based soaps.
