I will add i picked up Mumtaz in the recent release and its spectacular. The scent is great and I cant really add anything to what others have said about the new base. My only regret is I didnt get the A/S.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Mumtaz soap. Next week, I will send out the Mumtaz aftershave, along with other items, to TRC and Pasteur.

Hey Mo, when are you going to get the current orders to the PO? I received my shipping notice on the 7th for my order placed on Jan. 29th. I actually ran out of product I ordered which was part of my daily routine.

Hi,

I just made a trip to USPS and dropped off tons of packages. The remaining packages will be dropped off tomorrow, as they're the last ones to go. The reason they're the last is that I had run out of Aion Skincare balms and had to make more.

I'll message you to get more info on your order. Thank you for your business.

Hi all,
Its been a while since I posted on DFS had a problem with my login but anyhoo.
I have purchased all 3 sets from RC, WCS and Pastures and really have to say what a splendid set on all. In the past I would not even use aftershave on my GD soap because of the outstanding post shave fell. Now bingo this solves all. If I were a rich man would hands down purchase all sets offered.
I just received notice that my coattails set is out for delivery today.
I will always say GD soaps are the best out there. There are MANY good ones but nothing is better then GS soaps.

I've had difficulty finding the appropriate restrictors and caps, but I think I've resolved it. The cap on your La'Aventura, which has been shipped via USPS, provides a superior protective seal.

Although the aftershave has been widely praised, I'm surprised by your disapproval. I understand that people have different skin types and moisturizing needs, and you're the first to express dissatisfaction. To address this, I suggest reducing the amount you apply. It's best to start with 1/4 of your usual quantity as the aftershave contains powerful ingredients that require only a small amount.

I'm eager to hear your feedback on using a lesser amount.

Bingo. Using less of the L'Avventura aftershave gave most excellent results.

What fantastic news! I appreciate you taking the time to experiment with smaller quantities of the aftershave.

Today, for an experiment, I used GD’s new SE base without any post shave products. As it happens, I did not need any. My skin feels great, even 12 hours after the shave. Mohammad's new base is excellent. 

I still enjoy using post shave products for a variety of reasons, but this soap does not require the use of any.


The scent on Mumtaz is also tweaked a bit and I like it even more.

ALI I'm glad you like Mumtaz, thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Kairos SE performance too.

Here is a SOTD post by FaceScraper https://damnfineshave.com/thread-what-so...#pid486695

I'm thrilled that Mumtaz is well-liked by everyone who tries it.

I'm gearing up to start producing a phenomenal bar soap. Mumtaz will be one of the scents slated for the launch.

That would be very nice.  I would definitely be interested in a good bar soap in mumtaz, and hopefully you keep restocking that one in future Kairos releases.  Will all kairos soap going forward be in the SE formula?
