First use of Cedarwood today and it was very nice. Very straightforward woody cedar scent. I am not sure what the designation Astute Nai means exactly but the scent comes off as a natural one to my nose. The scent reminds me of Tallow & Steel Kyoto. The soap is very soft. It created a low volume lather with a sheen like a glossy Elmer's Glue. I also have Otium (in Nai but not Astute) but have not used it for awhile. The scent was very pleasant on that one but it did not perform up to my expectations--I was definitely missing the tallow. Not so with Cedarwood though it too is vegan. I will have to give Otium another go to see if it was just me on that one day. My next Grooming Dept soap up is Mumtaz in Kairos.
george1906 On the assumption that you are married, I seriously hope you keep all that soap in a super-secret compartment so your spouse does get wind of that hoard. LOL

I'm glad you like Cedarwood. The Astute Collection soaps are scented with 100% essentials oils, absolutes, and natural resins.

Hi UngerWoo Thank you for the interest.
Both at West Coast Shaving
