I really enjoy Haslinger performance but the scents, with the exception of Schafmilch are not my cup of tea. This morning was Salbei (sage) and performance was wonderful! This is the old tallow formula and I cannot speak to the new formula having never used it. Scent strength is stronger than most Haslinger offerings and lasts through the shave. Sage is the name but I don't get much sage in the scent. It's a solid performer but for my nose there are better options. I'll finish this puck but won't replace it.

WCS Gatsby... Love the scent on this one. Sophisticated and classic.

Also like to mix it, from time to time, with Stirling Baker Street. To my nose, they compliment each other. [Image: 8e62d688933d44d1d1a4dfa2751e47eb.jpg]

Warm Woods v. (Meißner Tremonia) ★★★★ Mexican juniper, lignum vitae, styrax benzoin, amyris, Atlantic cedar, stone pine

This is one of my favorite woody soaps. There's no skanky fake oud, no Australian sandalwood, no screeching synthetic frankincense in the mix, no cloying rose. Instead we get a medley of fairly common wood oils blended to create a gentle, warm scent that's just compensation for the shaver who's been called away from a snug bed. Sweet, but not ambery (I don't smell any vanilla at all), Warm Woods smells of just a pinch of dried herbs and other apothecarian paraphernalia. There's a lot of smoky cedar in the mix, too. If you're a fan of MT's Strong 'n Scottish, you'll recognize that same smoldering peat in Warm Woods. Altogether, it's a convincing and settling reminiscence of a juniper fire glowing on high desert sand under a gnarled piñon pine.

MT uses a different recipe for each of their soaps. Some are made with lanolin, which gives a smooth waxy finish. Others feature Shea butter, a great friend of winter skin. But Warm Woods doesn't offer either of these emollients. Its finish isn't unpleasant, but it's noticeably drier than most other soaps made by Meißner Tremonia.
