Barrister and Mann

Samples of Fougère Gothique are now available at Maggards, in collaboration with Barrister_N_Mann , of course...

I jumped on this the second I saw it posted - maybe impulsive, but really want to smell this one and am glad there is an opportunity to do this before investing in the soap, aftershave, and EdP.

Looking forward to this one though - the scent notes have been interesting.

Me too even though I will probably not have the sample before the preorder have ended .

The pre-order will run for two weeks for precisely this reason.

So, Fougère Gothique is in the Reserve soap base?

Yessir.

Maybe to early to comment, but I was wondering if this reserve base will have any pattern to usage. For example, all special/limited editions, or perhaps glissant will slowly go away?

Inquiring minds wanna know, Will!

Also, the samples before hand is a terrific idea, Will. Really happy to see this and I hope it continues in the future!!

No to all of the above. I simply felt that, since this set has the potential to be very expensive for some folks (details and pricing to be announced next week), it should utilize what I consider to be my very best soap base to date. If I use it for any non-Reserve soaps in the future, it will likely be very sparingly.

Just ordered a sample from Maggard's.

Me too!

Barrister_N_Mann, making 300 of anything disappear in such a short period of time may just qualify you for the soapmaker magician of the year award.

Fougere Gothic Sample order placed! "Barrister_N_Mann" thank you for offering this, excited to check it out, and excited that it's being offered in the "Reserve" base!

It seems Italian Barber "leaked" all the details about the Fougère Gothique release. Barrister_N_Mann , is this an Apple's style controlled leak? ;-)

I wonder why they did that?
