Cool and wet here in north Texas. After some spring gardening I needed some Vetiver!

MdC Vetiver! Such a tremendous product. I have used it several times and i think there is more soap in the jar. Doesn't take much to get a creamy lather. 10 second load for a 3 pass shave! Wow[Image: bd639a0d5a77b9f56d2dc6e2b9b54b0e.jpg]

The soap carries that scent but one won't know it unless you know to look for it.  Post shave there are about 15 minutes where the scent is gloriously revealed and those are precious minutes.

Hey Lipripper660 , does this mean the scent is very light and fleeting? That was my experience with some of their soaps. Not all, mind you, but I quickly came to the conclusion that reviews were definitely needed to cull the herd.

Mind you, the light and fleeting scents are good for those boiling hot summer days when you don't want a cloying scent following you around. Still, typically I like a medium to med-strong scent.

This one definitely sounds like a keeper scent-wise. Wonder if they'll ever consider a premium line with more scent oils? Some of their soaps I passed on would absolutely be revisited if they ever did that.

As always, thanks for the awesome reviews.
Scent is actually quite bold.  It is strong off the puck,  Stays around during the passes, but fades quickly on final rinse.  That awesome sulphur scent lingers lightly post shave.
Awesome. I will definitely have to try this one then. Thanks.
