Shawn, I used the YRP today for the first time - WOW - its really nice. I like it a lot, but I think I've said that about all of your products Smile I have some rose scented soaps but I haven't ever used a rose scented aftershave/toner before. For all the manly men out there who might be reluctant to wear a floral aftershave, the rose is there but it blends in such a way with the yuzu and patchouli that it comes on as masculine as any scent I've tried. Love it.

On the subject of Men Essentials - is the deal with them immenint? Are we talking days, weeks or months out before they start stocking Chatillon Lux?

Thanks Shawn, I appreciate your dedication to your craft.

I would agree Marko- wonderful mix of scents and although floral still grounded by the citrus and patchouli.

I used GLS this morning and am loving the way it dried down too [has rose as well, but also tobacco, leather, etc.].

Hi Kevin, I really like GLS as well. Tomorrow I'll try Fourth and Pine for the first time - any thoughts on what soap might pair well with it? hawns what would you go with soap wise?

Very clean- perfect match for Barrister_N_Mann Limon. Tim's Busta's Blend is another good match. Ah heck, it goes with anything Smile

Marko I would agree with kwsher that Limon is an outstanding pairing. Also, Mickey Lee Soapworks' Colonia di Agrumi is a pairing that I really enjoy with it as well. Those would be tied for my favorites to use with it.

hawns , how do you find the MLS Colonia di Agrumi for scent strength? I have the Reunion and find it very lightly scented to the point where I don't use it because I like to smell something.

Marko I think it's a little bit stronger than Reunion. Cape Verde may be the strongest of the three scents I have from the new line, but I could see why they might want to make Reunion lightly scented. Since the vetiver is so bold and earthy, I could see how some people might be overwhelmed by a high level of that scent. I've had soaps of scents that I enjoyed, but they got kind of overwhelming. Just speculation, however.
