Really nice scent!
FWIW, Fine Accoutrements is about to debut some (supposedly) excellent hard soaps - including a Platinum (Aventus-inspired) offering.
(I know it's not the real thing, though.)

Good point! I'm looking forward to trying their soaps since they are supposedly based on the Tabac formula (and I'm not the biggest fan of that scent). American Blend, Platinum, or Fresh Vetiver would be great in a shaving soap. That said, I didn't find Platinum to be very close to Aventus in scent or quality, though does have a similar vibe.

Baseball scent, I know there is B &M diamond, but that seems to me more like a stadium baseball fan scent. As a baseball player the scents that I would like are pine tar, leather, grass, clay/dirt.

Awsome suggestion regarding the Aventus scent by Nuavia! Would love to see that.

Castor based oil used in hot rodded Triumph motorcycles (very distinctive). 8# Black Bass scent, then there could be a 10#, etc. Freshly caught of course. ;-)>

WoW , just spotted a fragrance guy Happy

My list:

1. Hermés Ambre Narguillés
2. Atelier Vetiver Fattal
3. Byredo Pulp
4. Creed Virgin Island Water
5. YSL Body Kouros
6. Parfums de Marley Herod

and a soap with a strong natural anise/licorise scent.

FYI Saponifico Varesino 70.th Anniversary soap to my nose smells quite close to a well made copy of Chanel Allure Homme Sport (and not so much Acqua di Gio, as so many shavers state it should smell like - and I own all 3 versions of ADG and of course the now classic sport frag Allure Homme Sport)
