A few nice goodies this month but the most beautiful is this Druida ebony and blue resin manchurian:

MDC Rose and Vetiver

What is the Rose soap like? Similar to Rose de Pushkar at all?

Not at all. On the first sniff it has some resemblance to the Eufros Rosa Bourbon. Once lathered there is much more similarity to the Pitralon Swiss. and of course it has that famous MDC undertone.

My Chanukah came early.  A gift from a friend, an iKon El Jefe SE razor head with an iKon SE 90mm matte handle and a tub of Barrister & Mann Dickens Shaving Soap.  He also included a couple of Feather Artisan Pro blades for me to try with the razor.  

Barrister_N_Mann Passiflora has crossed the pond!

Got a nice label for my tub of Vide Poche today
