Nai is easily the star of the bases from my perspective

I'm glad you like it. Thank you for sharing!

There are several ingredients in the scent that allude to mint, some people notice them, some don't. They come across as somewhat herbal for some.

Now that you mention leather, the scent does have a leathery note from Osmanthus Smile
Hi Mo, I don't get the leather either  Big Grin  It doesn't matter because it smells nice to me.  I've experienced scents that I love that others hate, that I hate that others love and the strangest of all are the scents that I can't even smell that overpower others (my wife). I can't explain it but I like what I like.  I do wonder why I can't smell some things at all that others can though.

Yeah I most certainly do! I get mint, light creaminess (or leather). To me it seems like a minty, creamy, full fat ice cream or gelato. Soooooo good! It’s just the right amount of mint too. Doesn’t smell like toothpaste or bubble gum. Just light and sofisticated.

Man that was a great batch. Still have a pie slice about 2,5 cm at base; once used, gone forever

I bought 2 tubs of this and just finished the first tub or almost. Scooped what was left out and combined it with the back up tub for a nice super full tub as well as bought a tub of the newer version of Angel. Love the original and the newer version.

Hi Certif 

I'm still waiting on the labels Sad Getting ingredients and supplies has been a very slow process this past month. Everything is bottled and ready to release.

Ruds shaves review of Amare!

Kairos took a while to make! I'm grateful for a few testers who stuck around, used several iterations, and continually provided feedback as I developed Kairos. Thank you DFS!
