The Krect was a nice surprise, mild but effective, a DFS & BBS, 3 rounds, but no hunting for strays..
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.
