The wait is almost over for you and Marko because we FINALLY got the vials in late yesterday. I'm going to work on samples this afternoon and tomorrow after I get off work and will let you know when the LQV samples are ready to roll.

We had a really great review by Charky on YouTube of a limited edition fragrance we made for The Shave Market on Facebook. Give it a watch.

Also, we are currently working on our first wholesale order and are excited to let you know the details soon.

Great review - I have a tub of the melange a lavandre on the way even before I saw this review. I'd love to get a sample of that Fougere aftershave if there's any lying around. Thanks hawns

I poached this quote from the SOTD hawns but take a deep breath and know that you once again have crushed it. The scent as expected is remarkable and the emollients are spot on [again, my taste, YMMV, etc.] with just the right amount of moisturization and none of the residual feeling. The menthol, which I have always liked, was strong. Probably stronger than any other AS I currently own but was just the right amount to give that "bloom" I mentioned but not overpower.

I know that I am a sample pool of one but for me, this is the right mix for your line card in a good, better, best from a moisturizing perspective. Best: you have the salve; better: toner and good: AS splash to cover the entire gamut of skin needs.

Regardless, love the LQV. When I wear your stuff I hope that I catch a fleeting aroma throughout the day and as a non-cologne wearer can really offer no higher complement to your scent scentsibilities [sic]. Tomorrow I can't wait to try the Yuzu/Rose and if I could or needed to shave later would use it tonight.

I appreciate you putting these together!

Unfortunately we sold through it all, but we will be doing a second run of it in the near future, so chances are that you'll be able to get a little bit to sniff.

Oh, it's certainly no problem at all! And I do love how that vetiver and violet leaf combo that lingers for so long.

Also, I had a pretty good chuckle over scentsibilities.

The more you discuss LQV, the more antsy I get waiting for my order to arrive!  Apparently, the 'Slow' Pony Express must have been sidetracked taking on provisions between Hazelwood, MO and Ohio.

They may have gotten shaken down by the James Gang. Over here it's the outlaws and over there you've got the rock band. A double James Gang raid.

An update on samples: we received the sample vials, but they sent us the wrong size. When I contacted them, they said they were out of the right size, so I can only assume they thought they'd send the wrong one and see if it could squeak by? Either way, sample vials are now on order from a different distributor.
