Asylum Shave Works Colonia Shaving Soap by Saponificio Varesino (150g)

I sincerely hope these 2 companies make soap together again. This was is an amazing scent and performer. I've always loved The Saponificio Veresino soaps. I liked the scent enough to go on a limb and order the Asylum Royal Fougere have soap/after shave.

Great performance and scent along with exceptional service, You need to try this one along with the AS, you won't be sorry.

As an avid fan and owner of the Acqua di Parma Eau de Cologne, I can safely say that the scent of Asylum Shave Works “Colonia” Beta 4.3 is spot-on accurate, and absolutely heavenly. While the amazing scent is enough to recommend the shaving soap alone, the performance metrics are outstanding as well, with exceptional glide, great easy to build dense lather and a fabulous but not overly oily post-shave feel. I love all the SV Beta 4.3 line soaps, but this is my favorite.

I ordered the asylum colonia shaving soap and the matching aftershave lotion.They work very well together the smell is pleasant not overpowering,
I’ll buy them again!!!

Colonia is my favorite soap in the Asylum line. It just gets everything right. It makes gobs of lather so easily, it almost seems like a shave cream. Great glide, and my skin feels moisturized for hours after shaving. This is firmly in my rotation.

I’ve used quite a few soaps and creams, but this has become my favorite. Great lather, glide and protection. My face never feels dry or the least bit “itchy” after the shave. The scent is spot on and relaxing. I highly recommend this!

I have been so impressed with this soap and AS that I just purchased the Flying Mango in the Bullgoose aluminum bowl. The bowls are excellent (I'll have 2 now) as are the soap. Top tier all the way.

I ordered two of these based on customer reviews and am very happy with them. They lather easily and provide a very slick shaving surface. The scent is mild but to me, very pleasant.

In typical BullGoose fashion, Phil had these to me so fast I could not believe his speed. This time I was able to talk to him on the phone. I believe he works 24/7!

Thank you Phil, for a terrific product and for your very speedy shipping and outstanding customer service. I always enjoy doing business with you.

This is incredible soap. Four shaves in using it now.... it almost lathers itself (with my synth, also Asylum, Cheswick brush -- haven't even tried it with another brush yet). Very slick, comfortable lather, great face feel afterwards. I like the scent a whole lot, too.

This is in my opinion, the best performing SV soap. Super slick and great post shave feel. The first time I opened the tin, I did not like the scent. It grew and grew on me to the point it is my favorite scent at the moment. I like the colonia so much that I bought the black aluminum container for it.

I love the performance of this soap, but bought it for the scent. With some AdP Colonia lotion in one hand and this soap in the other, I can report that the scent is very will matched.

I own several Saponificio Varesino soaps, and I like them all, so I was confident in ordering the Asylum/SV Colonia Beta 4.3. It is my first Beta 4.3 formula, and I was definitely not disappointed! For me, it delivered easy lathering and great face feel, plus I like the scent very much. It may seem a little pricey, but I know how long the SV soaps last -- I haven't used up any of my SV soaps yet, and the first one was purchased 4 or 5 years ago. Great stuff, highly recommended!

This may be the perfect soap. Lathers exceptionally well, is incredibly slick, and has a wonderful scent. Post shave feel is great and the aftershave is terrific.

I bought this recommended by a friend and haven’t been disappointed except when I went out of town without it. This product makes exceptional lather with the right amount of water and is super smooth. The scent reminds me of an autumn walk in the forest and very relaxing.

I love the SV scents. Their scents are just other level. I must say that Colonia is now right there at the pinnacle of scents with SV Felce. But, IMHO, this is the best performer out of all the SV soaps. Love, love, love this soap.

I have all the SV shaving soaps and this is one of the best! Very creamy lather that is easy to lather. The scent is very masculine, probably the most masculine of the SV soaps. The lather is very slick too. If you are hesitant over spending the money for a premium soap, don't be. This soap is worth the cost.
