The balm, cream, and soap are the same to me. Mostly guaiac wood with maybe a little frankincense/incense and a touch of vanilla.

The balm and cream are I Coloniali Rhubarb, not Mango Oil. But the scent is the same, at least to me.

The iColoniali Mango Balm is different than the Rhubarb. I've got a precious little left but would be willing to send a sample. How. Much would you need Frank?

Ah yes, the 3-in-1 balm in the tub is different from the rhubarb balm in the glass bottle. The 3-in-1 isn’t the same scent as the soap or rhubarb balm, 3-in-1 is a light cologne to my nose.

It is one of the truly unique scents in shavedom. I wish I could still get it. Maybe they will bring it back someday.

Well long story short. If I can duplicate or get close on my own then I only need like maybe a half an oz or so but if I have to send it to one of the fragrance companies I work with they usually require at least a couple of oz . Let me try it first and if we have to send it out for duplication maybe a group of members can each donate a little each so there’s a decent amount for the perfumers to work with. I’m thinking of two companies I’d like to send the samples to.

So yeah I personally don’t need much.

Thank you for offering. ??

OK, I just need to find a little sample jar to put some in. I should have one around here somewhere

Never saw it previously, so I'm leaving here the complete scent profile from the fragrance. 
Maybe some fine soapmaker will find it interesting, who knows!
