Looks like I have to root for Ylang Ylang or Fougere now, just not into flowery scents and the Rosa Bourbon while nice probably wouldn't get much if any use in my Den. Guess I could buy it and hold it for a nice trade down the line though.

I agree...Sandalwood is amazing. Probably my favorite offering of his. Used it again this morning.

I could add them back in if people think it'll sway their decision.  doesn't matter to me either way.
It’s probably alright as is, unless someone specifically wants to know. The price is roughly $20–30 per jar, depending on the scent, right?

For those unfamiliar with Agarwood it is also known as Oud.

I can add them back in at some point tonight. I think you're right though, most were $20-$30.

I have a sample of his Agarwood. It is pure, unmixed oud. I think Manual makes great soaps with great scents but I think he missed on this one. I STRONGLY dislike it.

There was a forum LE for le Per Lucien at that other place. Primotenor and I suggested a rose and were routed. Rose scents of any quality are under represented and understand this one is very nice.

I have 3 of Manuel's soaps (all premium tallow) and they're amazing performers. My tobacco soap is already half gone. I'd vote for fougere but I already have two (one is a backup), though sometimes I get a banana-bread vibe from the fougere. I wish the fougere were a little more bright or maybe with a bit of green vetiver thrown in.
The other soap I have is from another group buy from a UK forum, it's more of an aquatic scent.
I voted for Tobacco and Sandalwood though I'd prefer if the tobacco were more fresh/green.
I had a sample of ylang ylang and absolutely hated it.

I just used a sample of Eufros ylang ylang and it was amazing! The lather is among the best and the scent is unique.
