My perspective: the bases are as different as traditional seasonal German beers - each appropriate to the weather - and exhibiting dramatically different properties especially post shave.



Lusso is perfect for the Deep South summers filled with heat and humidity - it has a light feel to the skin and hydrates without clogging the pores or over moisturizing



Donkey Milk is the perfect shoulder season formula with more cushion and moisturizing yet still sufficiently light and slick for the transitional weather conditions less humid and hot



Duck Fat is fantastic for those 2 months of cold, dry and windy conditions where maximum cushioning and maximum hydration is needed including the post shave



The beef, vegetable and lamb base are all top shelf too but these are my big 3 at the moment. Have not tried the Nai base so can not comment but user posts indicate it reminiscent of ABC which would be nice for straight razor shaving. Kairos sample is in transit; from reports it likely will find a home in the rotation. Note no comments on scent as don't purchase scented soaps and this a thread re bases. Wish the Nai base came in an unscented variant but....
