Barrister and Mann

I had asked Will about this prior to the release. He informed me it is all EO.

If that's the case, then I misspoke. Latha Lavanda is all EO, but Reserve Lavender is both lavender essential oil and multiple high-grade synthetics.

Also, hi all!

Hi Will

What with the year winding down to completion, any gossip of what the next 12 months may bring our way with regards to your brand?

More perfumes and further expansion of Reserve. Certain products will be getting the axe as we continue to consolidate and refine the brand.

I hesitated to like this post, but did so anyway. More Reserve is at least good news — that soap base is phenomenal. (And EdPs and EdTs are always nice to see, as well.)

Hey Will, hope you're doing well. You mentioned some products are getting the axe - I hope you'll give us adequate notice so that we can stock up on the soon to be discontinued products. Curiously, nothing seems to stimulate the need to have a product than the prospect of not being able to get it. I think its an evolutionary survival strategy. In any case, its ok, change is part of growth and I am looking forward to your continuing creativity and innovation - if you're dropping stuff it means that there's going to be new stuff coming.

Thanks

I respect that decision. I'm sure the numbers tell Will what needs axed. Honestly though I don't think I've ever had a B&M product that I didn't like. With that said, there have been a couple I grew tired of that I initially liked very much. Unfortunately I grow tired of a lot of scents, which is why my favorites change so often. As for the soap bases B&M has to offer, all sit proudly in my den and get plenty of use.

We'll definitely be giving people a heads-up about them, promise.

I'm still in mourning over Adagio and hope it gets resurrected in the future.

Any chance of an Unscented reserve based soap?

Who else ordered their Reserve Fern aftershave today? I got the soap to go along with it cuz you know, why not right...

Super excited for this one!

I snagged the Fern Soap and Splash as well as the Lavender Soap and Splash. I had ordered the Fern/Lavender Reserve Sample Pack earlier to see if I liked them, and I think they both smell amazing. I waited to purchase the full sized Soaps until the Splashes came out so I could bundle them. Iâ€m really looking forward to these, I think the scents are excellent and the Reserve Soap and Splash are some of the best Iâ€ve used. Looking forward to Will expanding his Reserve line!

Same here. Got a sample of the Fern soap and knew I had to have it. Like you, I was waiting for the aftershave to drop for the bundle action. I haven't smelled the Lavender. Is it a straight up lavender or is there more going on? I typically find plain lavender scents to be kind of boring so that one didn't pique my interest. I would be interested to hear your (or anyone else's) thoughts.
