This is an anhydrous (water free) & preservative free post shave product. The scents are essential oils only, the first scents will be (each): Vetiver, Lavender, Mandarin+cardamom.

It'll be out at the same as the a liquid toner, both will be out in about 10 days.

The way I have been using it is by applying about 4-5 drops.

Could one draw the conclusion that your soap release date "may" be in the same time frame?? Smile

I'm shifting the date for the soaps Smile Probably several days after the aftershaves have been released.

As the saying goes, "good things come to those who wait"

Damn I hate that saying...

SCShaver are you saying that Neroli de Bois is an AdP like scent? Fine Italian Citrus is my go to summer AS. I would love to have an AdP scent in a GD base. Where did you get your GD samples?

I've never smelled true AdP. I have only smelled Razorock XXX, Oleo Shiloh, and the newest variant of Fine Italian Citrus. Now to me, Shiloh seems to have a stouter version of the XXX scent, which is probably most like AdP since many say XXX emulates AdP. To my nose, Fine Italian Citrus is a much brighter, stouter scent than both of these. Neroli di Bois to my nose smells EXACTLY like Fine Italian Citrus in fact I feel like it even matches its scent strength. I have never experienced the the first edition Fine Italian Citrus mind you, only the newest variant which I think was re-released in what 2016 or 2017? I cant remember.

I found Shiloh almost sickeningly sweet...almost sugary...and overbearing. As well as quite artificial/chemically smelling. Not nearly in the same ballpark as the natural, more delicate and refined smell of AdP. But...that’s according to my nose...your nose may have a very different opinion.

I definitely wouldn't call Shiloh sickeningly sweet, I enjoy it. Pucker to me is a much sweeter scent from Oleo and I could see how some might find that one "sickening." I have never experienced AdP so you have got me there having tried it. I would HOPE that AdP at its price point would smell better than some of these affordable soaps/aftershaves people are putting out in an attempt to clone them.

Let me just reiterate what I said earlier then, taking AdP out of the equation. Neroli di Bois smells just like Italian Citrus from Fine. How much either of these smells like AdP I could not tell you.
