Nice setup,
Two questions if you wouldn't mind helping me out.
What's the actual scent of the soap like, isit similar to arko, or something along them lines ?
And do you rate the fine platinum ?
Many thanks

Thank you. I couldn't really say what the OSP smells like, maybe a bit musty? I've never used Arko so couldn't say. Send me a PM with your address and I'll send them to you.

As for the Fine Platinum, it class. Firstly it works brilliantly as an aftershave. There is just the right amount of alcohol and menthol and leaves you with a great face feel afterwards.
As for the smell. It smells pretty close to Creed's Aventus and does last a while. It's not going to last hours or project like Aventus, frankly nothing does.

A mate at work smelt it on me and thought it was Aventus. When I told him what is was and the price, he ordered it straight away.
He said it didn't last long on him. I suggested putting some on his clothes. I've done this in the past and it does last a lot longer.
Hope this helps?
