UPDATE: 

Two things. 

1. As of tomorrow morning at 8:30am EDT the Greenfresh and DFS Colonia in the F Base will be available. The Peppermint is already up. 


2. Anyone who may have looked at the Peppermint F Base Shave soap will notice that the price is $1.50 more than the normal $38 for the basic scents. Just to be totally upfront this increase is completely due to a 30% increase in my packaging costs. Both the jar and brushed 
Aluminum caps went up that much since the last time I purchased which was about 9 months ago.  

I hope you all understand I’ve not increased the prices based on the active ingredients and aroma ingredients costs even though those have also gone up. I still believe in pricing the products according to what’s in them. An example, the Mandarino Fumo Shave soap price was more than let’s say the Peppermint Essential oil because the Aroma blend ingredients in the Mandarino  are quite a bit more expensive than those found in the Peppermint Shave soap. 
This whole packaging price increase is a whole different thing with the increased fixed price in the packaging costs. An this particular batch I I got lucky and didn’t have to pay the increased price on the mold set up as they had run the same jar for another company so I got lucky or it would have been even more. Kind of like cars. I don’t see prices going down to where they once  were. I just never expected such a large increase in such a short amount of time. Good news is I bought enough to last me a while and I told them to let me know if they have to do another run for another company as I’ll tag onto that run and keep my set up costs down. 


Best regards.

Hi Frank, not sure if they're supposed to be, but I didn't see these available on the site today. (Or maybe they are there and I just missed them.)

Yes their not up on the website yet because the individual photos I took weren’t good enough for he website according to my website developer so I have do them all over again and the same with the Face & Body Roll Up Shave Soap Sticks but all of them are labeled and ready to go live.

I’d describe it as a topical scent with some tabac bitters at the end so it doesn’t smell like Suntan lotion but definitely a tropical. I’ll be coming out with a whole line with his scent or a very similar one next year…. ( with winter coming not till spring 2023 ) It’s a blend I’ve been playing with for some time. 

I brought a few bottles to a couple of salons and a spa locally for their feedback along with thier customers and they loved it and want me to make a matching conditioner which I’m going to make to match the other shampoo/body washes. 

The Shampoo/body wash and soon to come conditioner and a very cool styling gel along with the Bay Rums  will be the fist few products to introduce the new 
“ Island Collection “  which is one I plan to build on moving forward with multiple products and Island inspired aromas.  

Thanks my friend and enjoy your Sunday.

I’m sorry. It sold out very quickly and I wish I had made a bigger batch. I will make another batch right after I get some of the new shave soaps that are scheduled next. Im behind because of the move but I’m getting there. 

There is a feature where you can click on the sold out Colonia, then put your email address in to get notified when it’s back in stock. 

Best regards
