I was in Canada through Badger Shaving until they closed.  I certainly need to get another Canadian vendor.  Going to work on that.

wyze0ne I know they do but its always more convenient and cheaper to get product shipped domestically. IB and Fendrihan offer free shipping at a certain spend point and Canadian Blade Co has a flat rate of $5 within the Province. And, those nosy customs guys keep their hands off my soap. Every order I've received from Crowne & Crane has taken forever and then shown up with the yellow "Opened by Customs and Border Services" tape wrapped around it. I'm not sure why but it might have something to do with the strong soap smell emanating from the package - he shrink wraps some of his soaps and the scent is noticeable and I think thats a smuggler's trick to try to fool dogs or something. Who knows.

Paolo,

Do you have any forthcoming plans for new soap scents, aftershave balms, or other new products?

Hello FancyDan!

I do have a couple of things in the works, actually.   I'm currently revamping the balm formula.  After having some separation issues, it was time to revisit the drawing board.  

I'm also working out a couple of new things both soft and hard!  Not at the revealing stage yet, but getting close.

Thanks for asking!

Paolo, mom was from Napoli and best bud works Italian Embassy in DC.

Anyway, have heard your AS Balm is equivalent of ABC Apricot which I use regularly. Any comments? Any chance to get a sample?

Best

My grandfather is from the Napoli ares as well!  Nola to be precise.

Regarding the balm, I don't know if equivalent is the right word.  My recipe is apricot and grapeseed oil based.  ABC's seems to be sunflower, mint and sweet almond oils with apricot and other extracts.

I've personally not used ABC's so I cannot directly compare performance.  However, I can say that mine moisturizes quite well and is far less expensive!

Any chance to get a sample? Will literally know in first application if it works for me. Extremely sensitive skin here
