Yep! I usually scoop out an almond-sized dollop and spread into the bowl. Speaking of almond, the soap smells like cherry kernels. When it comes to the volume of lather, I find it is better to have too much soap than too little. I usually end up with having to flush a lot of lather down the drain, but since I only shave 1-2 times a week, it's not that bad.

For me, in this case, I ask my wife if she plans to shave her legs 😅
