There certainly is, but at the same time, I was thinking back to last summer after starting the company and spending all day hoping like hell that I would get one order for the day. Now tonight I hope I can get all the orders packed up. I'm definitely grateful to be busy, that is FOR SURE!

I was thinking back to last January when I had first contacted you wondering if your toners could survive being shipped to me in sub-zero temperatures! I also remember that when I sniffed them after they arrived I initially didn't think that they were for me....then I tried them and loved them. That seems like a long time ago but its not. I'm also grateful for what you do and that you're busy and enjoying it. Thank you Smile

Thanks! That's exactly why, whenever someone just sniffs something out of the bottle and makes a judgement on the scent, I want to hold them down and put the aftershave on their face. So it's probably good that I don't do much face-to-face business, haha

Now that I would like to see. Big Grin

I think there's the makings of another aftershave scent here...something related to madness born of long dark, cold winter nights

My Black Friday order arrived a few days ago and I've been having a great time pairing them up with the soaps in my den. Today's shave is going to pair La Foret de Liguest with Stirling Green.

And out of the ten products, there was only one which didn't initially agree with my senses....but before punches are thrown, I have revisited it several times and now I'm really looking forward to finding a soap it will work with so I can give it a try Wink

Used Unconditional Surrender today for the first time and all I can say is WOW! You knocked it out of the park with this one Shawn. I have to say it's my favorite scent of yours, very nice! And the post shave feel of the aftershave is second to none by a long shot. I hope you never stop making this stuff or if you do, I must have the recipe so I can make my own, lol. Thanks again for the quality products!

Awesome, glad to hear it! I always felt like making new pairing combinations was half the fun of the hobby

And thank you, Jeff! I originally intended it to be a seasonal, but based on the response I may have to rethink it. It's one that I am really proud of and went through many formulae before landing on this one, so it's great to hear that the effort was worth it. Thanks again!

I really enjoyed reading this. Such a cool thing to experience and look back on. Congrats on all the success.
