APR April

[Rabid Badger]

Whilst I am not partaking in Arko Feb, nor can I comment on this soap, from what I have read it might shave well but has some olfactory challenges.

So as a welcome change, how about Australian Private Reserve April? I know for one that I would like to work on my supplies, just so that I can restock with some of the upcoming releases. Not really a challenge, more of a pleasure.

What an excellent excuse to obtain some.

I'll join this one.

i will try participate.. just find it hard to stick with one soap for that long though.. see how it goes

I assume one can change soaps but just keep it APR, right?

That's exactly what I was thinking

Seems like a trifecta to me ...

I thought you're struggling with ARKO February? How could you possibly cope with Derby December?

 

[Keen edge]

If I were to try the APR April, which of their scents would be closest to a bay rum or sandalwood?

Derby shave stick doesn’t smell like a urinal cake weak lemon scent, because, Derby smells much better than Arko.

Not sure I could manage one soap for a whole month again, regardless of the scent

Why don’t you try Derby for at least a week or two so you can compare the difference from Arko yourself

Rightyo - its on my wanted list now. Can't guarantee when I'll get around to it though. There's a lot of stuff on my wishlist

 

[astinus4]

Apologies for hijacking this thread with talk of Arko and Derby - please resume your APR discussions

 

[RustyBlade]

Very tempted, looks very possible to achieve this one! The Arko challenge was a good one just not for me.

For Bay Rum, I'd check out Bay City (it's been discontinued) but it might be hard to find. For Sandalwood, APR has a Les Santals set but it was a 1 run deal and was quite expensive and probably going to be hard to get your hands on. APR Fresca has some sandalwood in it, if you can find it.

I'm down to partake. I have quite a stash going right now so I need to start thinning the herd
