Thanks, Ryan! Keep doing what you are doing – you offer something very unique and valuable in the wet shaving market.

Hi Hooman,

Thanks - I hope you are doing well too.

I'll do my best to give you something to boost your spirits before summer is over! I'm hoping to release it in July, but it will depend on the COVID/travel situation. Getting some of these Japanese materials isn't easy.

Had my second use of the "Cairo" today. I'm not quite sure what to make of this scent yet. I get hit with a lot of tartness, but not in a bright and fruity way - before I reminded myself of the scent profile on the website, my best guess would have been Yuzu? Because it feels similar that way to the Japanese scents. There are some herbals notes underneath the tangy ones as well, but altogether it's a bit on the heavy side and maybe even murky. I see myself standing in the dim backroom of an old pharmacy, with shelves full of dried herbs and mysterious tinctures. Or, looking at the label, this is maybe what it smells like inside a Pyramid, with a few mummies still roaming about? Big Grin

Hey, thanks for sharing! Interesting take for sure. Nice shave, and I love the little figurine addition. I hope the scent grows on you as you get more familiar with it.

I used the new Morocco this morning for the first time.  Confused Just. Damn. Awesome. I don’t know but that may just be Ryan’s best soap and fragrance to date.  I didn’t compare it to original Morocco until afterwards. There’s no smoke in new so if you were in it for the smoke, too bad for you. Check out NO Plunder or THB Sandalwood Smoke. If you can find any. 

I have to say, I’m curious what Ryan will do next but I do know exactly what I’ll be doing at the next T+S release. Buying that…soap!

Morocco is my favorite in the group with Cairo right behind it. Remarkable base and scents. Just loving them!

Right on guys! It’s my personal favourite too from the new ones. It shares some similarities with my favourite scent we’ve released - Merry! 

Ok heading back to work on our next drop.
