A fairly new soap maker and getting it right out of the gate. I have the Marshlands and a sample of the TSM, and the Harmony on the way. Great ingredients and unique in it's inclusion of Bison tallow. One of the slickest soaps made today with a skin healthy post shave. The excitement for me is the incorporation of the four botanicals. Good on you Scott!

This brand is at the top of my "to try" list. I've heard great things about it and I think it's really cool that he and Shawn of Chatillon Lux have been collaborating. I haven't gotten in on any of those yet but hopefully there will be more. Let us know what you think of the Harmony scent. That's the one I was most interested in picking up. Thanks!

Yup, I've got Marshlands, Cuire et Epices, San Clemente and Sonoma Valley (customs courtesy of kwsher ) and Champs de Lavande which is a collab with hawns over at Chatillon Lux. Great soap, great scent, just go out and get some. You know you want to Smile

I have Cuir et Epices and I loveeeeeeeeeeeee the scent.

But IMHO, it perform excellently, however quite average in the post shave counter part. I would love to give this a few more shaves. That impression was made base on a single shave so take that as a pinch of salt.

I have a tub of Harmony, and samples of Marshlands, and Cuir Et Espices.

Great performing soap, takes some work to get the consistency I prefer in a lather, but it is a good soap. It is a bit on the soft side, this is one you may want to scoop out rather than load directly on the soap, at least that is what I recommend.

The Harmony scent is a sweet inscence/nag champa type of scent.

Marshlands is a earthy vetiver, a bit grassy, but a nice scent.

Cuir Et Espices- I love this scent, reminds me a bit of Van Yulay Grand Lodge but a bit more spice. Has some earth tones, leather, spice, maybe a tobacco note. Very complex scent for sure. I picked up the menthol aftershave in this scent, and the aftershave has great performance as well. Good ingredients and face feel, scent has good longevity.

I have Cuir Et Espices and have only used it a few times, but the lather is up there with the best of them. The resulting lather reminds a bit of Mystic Water's yogurty appearance. The scent i'm iffy on so far, but it may grow on me.

I also see the resemblance to Mystic Waters. Great stuff. Looking forward to Harmony.

After the Rain is my favorite. Mild citrus/pine sent. Sweet Lemon is a suprisingly great scent too but it appears to no longer be available. Great soaps!

Had a few shaves with the Marshlands and it performs similarly to one of my favorites - OSP - slick and protective. Just received a container of Trismegistus, which has (to my nose) an intoxicating scent. Every time I pass by my den I cannot resist to take a sniff...

Waiting on Fougere (in collaboration with Chatillon Lux). ETA - tomorrow.

I have Marshlands. Great soap, not so far behind my favorite soaps.
