Sample part 1 of 3. Extra Extra Professionale is more of a creamy croap to me. Strong scent all the way through lathering and use. The scent smells like bright sandalwood with a bit of powder. It performed well. Bond post shave products seemed to go well with this soap.

I hope you have a great Friday!
