It was your veryfirst  base - the cream like soap. Not soft anymore brother. It has firmed up and is a nice hard croap allowing me to hit the jar as I am prone.

Eyeballin' your Tonka and 'santal' release. Next week? I need your new SDWD Frank!

Thanks my friend for the encouraging words!  I don’t know about a cult following but I sure do have some great customers, that’s for sure. A bunch of them allow me to mix them up some crazy custom stuff which I really enjoy.

Oh and what’s SDWD?  I’m puzzled on those group of letters.

So the Melange de Agrume got firmer with age. That’s interesting. I don’t have any left except some samples and I’ll have to check them to see if they’ve firmed up also.  Sometimes soap and especially creams do that. I have two original AOS creams that are now like a very hard soap. Still work well and like you said it’s so easy to load from the jar.

Great shaves!
Sorry Frank. I have been here in KY too long yes spring . SDWD is your take on AOS Sandalwood [dropped the vowels]. Lol.

Skin food lotion seems right up my alley! Can’t wait to try some of these in the different scents.

Any more release details on the tonka bean Frank?

The Skin Food Lotions should be up very soon and I’m hoping before Monday. 

The Tonka Bean is on its way to the vendors so as soon as their ready I will get it up. 

Will be making the Sandalo Artistico this weekend or early part of next week at the latest. 

I’m starting to move along lol

I shaved with the Mandarino Fumo soap and what a great shave it was. I don't have much exposure to tobacco scented soaps but have smelled chewing tobacco and cigars in the past. I've never smelled fresh tobacco, fresh harvested or freshly withered/dried, etc. but I imagine Mandarino Fumo is what it would smell like. I don't get much mandarin to my nose but that's ok. Very well done Dragonsbeard  Happy2

Be careful with the EDP.. a little goes a long way. It’s very close to an Elixir rather than an EDP as far as the percentage of the Aroma Blend. I would have called it an elixir but the labels were already printed. It got some longevity to it for sure.

Even soap by itself has great longevity. AS makes it more than 12 hours. 
I think AS is more tobacco forward. I feel like I would prefer use it in winter. Only soap in summer.  
I wonder whether you will release any summer scents like aqua or shore??
