[font='Source Sans Pro', HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][font='Titillium Maps', Arial]Summer Limited Edition[/font][/font]
[font='Source Sans Pro', HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]It's almost time for the summer limited edition scent. This year's scent is called [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Festival. It combines summer blooming flowers, summer fruit, and an intriguing base of smoke and gunpowder to evoke the feeling of summer festivals around the world. Here in the US, when you think of fireworks, you can't help but think of Independence Day. Fireworks also feature in music festivals, sporting events and more, from LA to Kyoto. Festival will be available as shaving soap, bath soap, and Scale Polish aftershave gel. Keep your eyes open for more information![/font][/font][/font]

[font='Source Sans Pro', HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][font='Titillium Maps', Arial]New Scents For the Line[/font][/font]
[font='Source Sans Pro', HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]We're adding new scents to the regular line up, and in keeping with the season they include some light, refreshing varieties. Each scent will be a shaving soap and bath soap. Each scent with the exception of White Chocolate Orange will also be available as Scale Polish.[/font][/font]

1. Coconut, Lime & Verbena - Coconut and lime are the stars of this scent, and create a mixture reminiscent of beaches and tropical drinks. Verbena adds a woody, citrusy undertone and ties the scent together.
   
   
2. Cucumber Melon - This popular combination can be found all over the personal care world. A light, refreshing fragrance, and a pleasant way to start your day.
   
   
3. White Chocolate Orange - This was originally a custom order for Windsor Citrus from the Path to Smoothness blog. But it gets so much interest every time it's mentioned that I had to try it out as a regular offering. White chocolate fragrance oil blends with sweet orange essential oil for a sweet olfactory treat. But don't eat it, even if you bang it on the table first.
   
   
4. Scylla (maybe) - Scylla will be a maritime scent with east Mediterranean influences. This one's not quite ready, yet, so I don't want to promise it for the 21st, but that's the target.
   

[font='Source Sans Pro', HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][font='Titillium Maps', Arial]Saying Goodbye to Old Friends[/font][/font]
[font='Source Sans Pro', HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]There are a few scents in our current line up that aren't selling anymore, or which haven't taken off, yet. [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Cinnamon Bunand Pomegranate will not be remade after the current stock is exhausted. Green Tea and Bergamot is still fairly new, but it may not be part of the line-up long term.[/font][/font][/font]

Our new scents for summer are now live on the Etsy store.

1. Summer LE "Festival" - fireworks, strawberries, watermelons, and honeysuckle. Scale Polish and shave soap .
   
2. Coconut Lime Verbena - Tropical scent with gorgeous coconut and lime. Shaving soap , Scale Polish , bath soap and lotion bar .
   
3. White Chocolate Orange - Smells like one of those oranges you break on the table. Shaving soap and bath soap
   
4. Cucumber Melon - A refreshing, clean scent, great for hot days. Shaving soap, Scale Polish and bath soapand Lotion Bar .
   

Take a look, tell us what you think!

Samples of all the summer scents have gone live in the Sample section!

A few more updates:

1. Festival sold out! - Our last tub of Festival sold over the weekend, but I have more in the pipeline that will be listed this week.

2. Blood Orange Hiatus - Blood Orange has always been a somewhat problematic scent, but it's consistently popular so I've kept it around. Unfortunately, a recent issues with a supplier's product became the straw that broke the camel's back, and the scent is on hiatus. At this time it is planned to be returning, but reformulated using Blood Orange EO as the base. Unless I come up with something I like that's too different, in which case I'll rename it to avoid confusion.

Thanks,
Eric

Are you planning on keeping Wassail around?

Probably not, based on last year's response. I'll look for a new winter scent for 2015.

That's a shame as I was given it as a gift about the time you brought it out. I love the scent and use it all year. I find it particularly cheerful, for some reason.
