Ok so this has been planned for a while now and it’s time to get things going. On April 8th 2024 there will be a total eclipse of the sun and Rochester NY is the largest city to be in the path of totality for this duration in proximity to major cities like NYC and Boston on the east coast. In fact, Rochester has been named one of the best cities to watch the 2024 eclipse by National Geographic, Fodor's and Thrillist. Hotels and Air B&B’s etc are booking up as the city expects thousands of people to come to get a good view of the solar eclipse. I’m doing a one time collectors edition run of the Shave Soap, Skin Food Splash and a Bath Bar Soap. These will sold as sets only  and will also include a pair of  ISO 12312-2 compliant and CE certified eclipse glasses. 

So I have some strong ideas on the scent but I want to  hear some suggestions from you and even more importantly “ a name for the scent “ and if we use the scent and the name you get a full set or if you come up with just the scent or just the name of the scent we end up picking you get a full set. So it’s possible to have 2 winners if one picks out the scent and another picks out a great name for the scent. If I don’t see anything suggestions on the scent and go with one of the ones that I’m thinking of using then there will be just one winner who comes up with just the name of the scent. An I will use one of the names for sure  There’s not a lot of time so I’ll pick a winner on Monday morning at 10 am EST. 

There’s just a couple of simple rules. You  can post up to 3 scents and 3 names BUT YOU HAVE TO QUOTE THIS POST to keep it going as all it takes is one post unrelated to this one ( example) like a SOTD or some product question post to make this contest post not seen especially if the post starts a new page so make sure to quote this post! 

The label seen below is what we are going with and there will be some special packaging for this release/ set. 

So let the contest begin!

Very cool label Frank.

1  Totality
2  Afternoon DeLight

"Afternoon Delight" because Rochester goes dark (de-light) @3:20PM, plus it picks up on the innuendo of the song title, and a soap jar is so different from a pop tune it might be off the legal radar.

"Totality" just because I think it rocks.  To my ear, it's powerful.

You clearly already have an idea for the scents you want to do so I'll leave that to you and just throw some names out. Here's my three throws of the dart at the wall LOL

1. Dark ROC - Play on nickname of Rochester

2. Dark Flower - Play on nickname of Rochester

3. Occultation - an event that occurs when one object is hidden from the observer by another object that passes between them

Second dtownvino on Orange with Tonka BUT it need be really strong orange foreward with tonka trace and in an actual soap, not creme.

On other hand, not a fan at all of Cremesicle - out grew that pre teen - please no orange vanilla
