I mean, with one glance at the scent profile you will see 16 different scent notes in this accord! What I \u003cem\u003ecan\u003c\/em\u003e promise is this is a very sophisticated, well blended aromatic experience! A very smooth take on a class of Fougère called \u003cem\u003eAromatic\u003c\/em\u003e. An Aromatic Fougère will often include herbacious notes, spices and woody notes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI personally find Mega Flora to be enchanting. The way the scent develops is an exercise in lycanthropy or shape shifting! The lead in is a double helix of French Lavender and Tonka Bean, a sweet, seductive siren song that hooks you by both nostrils and drags you into the forest! The woods are made up of Bamboo, a kiss of Citrus, Rose and Evergreen. Weaving playfully in between the trees are the soothing, herbaceous notes of Chamomile and Clary Sage. Lastly are the \u003c\/span\u003edeep, heavy, slightly sweet and resinous undertones of Haitian Vetiver and Earthy Oakmoss \u0026amp; Hay.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreen, Serene \u0026amp; Smooth.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eCUBE 2.0?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCUBE\u003c\/strong\u003e - 8 ounces and 6 sides of solid otherworldliness. \u003cstrong\u003eCUBE\u003c\/strong\u003e is \u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e your everyday preshave. \u003cstrong\u003eCUBE\u003c\/strong\u003e takes your shave to another dimension adding \u003cstrong\u003eextra protection\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ehydration\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eslickness\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eglide\u003c\/strong\u003e.

I can tell you why\u003cem\u003e I\u003c\/em\u003e think it's better, but in the end, do what works for you! First off, unlike using oil, a Preshave Soap will not gunk up your gear and rinses away easy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eI was seriously turned off by all the clean up involved when using oils. Plus I was always concerned about it getting into my favorite brushes undetected and going rancid. Also, applying oil with your hands then holding onto a blade is not the safest move in my book. [\u003cem\u003eThat said\u003c\/em\u003e, if you currently use an oil, apply it with your non-shaver hand!] In short, Preshave Oils inspired me to find a better way!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy a Preshave Soap is More Effective\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eA preshave soap really offers more bang for your buck; for one, it's more affordable and longer lasting. Use it first to clean the face before you shave, then rinse. Then reapply the soap prior to whipping up lather: First in a circular motion, then against the grain. The soap gets under the hairs, slightly propping them up, giving the blade more surface area to \"bite\" on to. The glycerin acts as a humectant pulling more water into the hair, prepping and softening it, thus making it a bigger target to mow down!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0281\/5884\/files\/CUBE_Preshave_Soap_Activated_Charcoal_Phoenix_Shaving_large.jpg?v=1506271554\" alt=\"Cube Preshave Soap\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" width=\"419\" height=\"320\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCUBE?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe release of \u003cstrong\u003eCUBE\u003c\/strong\u003e has been a long time coming.
