No it won't, I can however make you one with the Explorer series label if interested.

I was looking at Market Days and didn’t know what to expect. I’ll order a market days - it’s not worth your time to make me one soap - seriously focus on your upcoming releases.

It's really not a big deal. I have an unscented masterbatch for exactly this reason. I understand with all the releases not everybody gets a chance so it's a good way to get the scents out after the fact. Check out the barbershop duet's review, they love market days!

Market Days will arrive today, don't get me into this one but after two tries from Pasteurs they better have it right.

I will report back on a comparison between V4 and V5 bases by the weekend for everyone.

I used Market Days two days in a row (have to use a mild razor to shave daily so got out the 23C).  Very pleasant scent - I could use it from April until mid October in Eastern PA.  

However, i wasn’t here for the scent.  I wanted to review V5 vs V4 base.  Now, the very sincere truth is I do notice from batch to batch some slight variations in V4 mostly based off of firmness and how much product I need to lather with a 24mm Shavemac knot.  I mean slight and I see this from all artisans making soap, that is why it’s artisanal and not at Walmart.  

V4 vs V5 to me lathers, shaves and post shave seem identical.  I cannot discern any difference that is noticeable at all. 

It’s a great thing that whatever changes were made did not impact the performance of the soap!

The Herbalist
Tomato Leaf, Arugula, Herb Blend, Moss, Cyclamen, Vetiver, Cedarwood, Tonka Bean, Sandalwood, Burnt Maple

The Herbalist is a celebration of all things herbal, encapsulating the fresh, green vitality of a summer garden. This summer blend opens with the distinctive notes of green tomato leaf and arugula with a touch of peppermint and cyclamen. The heart of the fragrance reveals a rich blend of green herbs which includes anise, eucalyptus, tea tree, fennel, sage, bay leaf, rosemary and basil, each contributing to a complex and invigorating aroma that remains in the background, providing an ambiance rather than a distinct note.

As the scent evolves, the base notes reveal a grounding warmth thanks to vetiver, cedar wood and sandalwood. The finish is enriched with a very subtle sweetness thanks to tonka bean and burnt maple

Road Trippin’
Mandarin, Blood Orange, Yuzu, Bergamot, Sandalwood, Gardenia, Lavender, Jasmine, Caramel, Vanilla, Musk.

Road Trippin’ is an upscale orange creamsicle scent inspired by the vast expanse of the prairies and the joyful  (albeit lengthy) Alberta drives to the majestic mountains and beyond. This scent captures the spirit of fun and adventure, blending bright and zesty orange, mandarin and yuzu with creamy vanilla to evoke the nostalgia of a classic creamsicle. Subtle hints of bergamot add a complexity to the citrus blend, while delicate hints of jasmine, gardenia and lavender add a floral heart. The journey concludes with a grounding base of soft musk, warm sandalwood and caramel.

Birth of thr Cool - will it come back to the US?  

So many great scents have become exclusives and then when a distributor is out they won’t re order with enough inventory to make it worth a supplier’s time.  

I need another tub of it for the fall!
