Big things sometimes come in small packages, and Le Domino from Martin de Candre is no exception. This was my first foray into the world of MdC, and I couldn't be more pleased. The lather produced from this soap is nothing short of stellar. Voluminous, thick, rich, and slick are but a few of its qualities. The scent is light and fresh, clean and soapy. The little glass jar easily fits in the palm of your hand, which is at the same time the one downside of this soap. The puck is small, so if you load directly from it you're going to get soap all over your hand. Not a problem for me, but I guess you can always scoop some soap into a lather bowl if that's your preference. Regardless of how you get it there, I highly recommend lathering in a bowl as the results are excellent. The jar comes packaged in a handsome box with some literature to boot. An all around excellent experience.
