The name fits to a tee

If you don't like menthol move on...move on quickly. This is a WELL mentholated soap, lathers nicely and has great glide. It doesn't moisturize as well as some other soaps but it certainly leaves your face feeling fresh and your sinuses cleared

Very Nice

I seen this being used on Shave Nation where the host gave it very good remarks. Very nice menthol, maybe not quite as strong as the Shave Nation host implies but very nice. It lathers great, and gives a smooth cut for the blade, a nice pleasant surprise.I fully intend to purchase more when the time comes.

sapone barba mentolo extra forte

Il sapone è arrivato nei tempi indicati. La confezione è proprio minimale. La saponetta è piuttosto piccola solo 100g.Si preleva con il pennello umido e poi si monta in ciotola. Il montaggio è facile e corposo.Ci sono i cristalli di mentolo puri all'interno del sapone che hanno un effetto balsamico.Sulla pelle il mentolo si fa sentire... a dire il vero avevo timore di uscire con la pelle rossa come un peperone, ma invece tutto è andato liscio.Poi quando si sciacqua ti arriva la sferzata gelida!Un buon sapone dal profumo di mentolo puro.Lo consiglio specie in estate.

Wow the menthol hit, wakes you up and clears your head plus a superb shave too

The menthol in this shaving packs a punch. It gives a really good shave when properly lathered up. It comes as a puck so a suitable bowl/mug is required to use it. At the time of ordering I didn't realise this so resorted to borrowing a round plastic food storage container. After a bot of searching on the site I found a stainless steel shaving mug from a Chinese trader in the Amazon Marketplace, this iwas just right for this soap. I will be ordering the aftershave to match the soap. The soap is definetely one that I will reorder when it comes to an end.

Really potent

This soap is not for the faint of heart. Don't get me wrong, it does a fine (pun intended) job of creating a nice thick lather and I was able to get three passes and a clean-up without going back to the puck. The cooling menthol is like ice and gets cooler with each pass. I am not a fan of menthol but I found this to be uber refreshing and gives a great shave.

Decent soap

It makes a great lather but the mentol is mild and not as strong as others like chiseled face.

Excellent menthol rush with good protection during the shave

Grew up shaving with Rise Menthol shave cream, which had a goodly amount of menthol, and I certainly have missed that feeling over the years. This product has made up for lost time and then some! Excellent menthol rush with good protection during the shave!

Winter is coming....

Be prepared to freeze your face off with this insanely mentholated shave soap. This and all of the other fine soaps create a great lather and have a nice post shave feel. This particular offering comes with an over the top dose of menthol which is great on a hot summer day.

Nice & cool!

Definitely chill, but not as much as hoped for. Less stars due to doesn't ship to military PO boxes & had to have parents mail it out to me.

Wow!! Love this soap.

Just like a SNAKE BITE, STARTS OUT WITH A SLIGHT BURN THEN YOUR SECOND PASS IS COLDER AND THEN THE THIRD PASS EVEN COOLER MAN THAT MENTHOL IS GREAT!!

Love it. I won't lie I was very nervous ...

Love it. I won't lie I was very nervous about using this product at first. After the first shave though I found my favorite shave soap for those hot days and mornings when I need a bit of extra help waking up. I shave my head and face and man talk about a great shave and cold feeling after id's awesome. Pastor it with the after shave for a very cold morning experience
