Sapone Di Paolo AMA, June 19th, 2016

Hello Paolo,

Thank you very much for participating to this AMA. I like and only buy soaps / AS from artisan's workshop. Mostly in the USA. Never tried SDP but sure will in a near future. Bosco and Agrume are blinking their sweet eyes to me ;-) A question as of Fragrance. Why use Fragrance vs. essential oils? Any interest in this choice vs the other?

@"Sapone Di Paolo", are you making it out to the NE shaving meetup in September this year?

Unfortunately, I don't think that's in the cards. I just had air conditioner woes at the house which ate my travel money.

Hello Paolo,

Thank you very much for participating to this AMA. I like and only buy soaps / AS from artisan's workshop. Mostly in the USA. Never tried SDP but sure will in a near future.

Thank you! Agrume and Bosco are my two favorites!

As for fragrances, there are a few things. I try hard to keep to my simplicity and if I like the way it smells, that's really all that matters. Fragrance oils are certainly cheaper, but I have the least reactions to them. Essential oils typically smell better, but they can be irritating if not careful. When making scents, I don't really have a preference. If it smells good, it smells good.
