An excellent soap with an exquisite scent. Looks like a run on Shannon's following HoosierShave .
Funny...I was debating whether to use Haymarket Vetiver or the Botanica!

How is this stuff?
I see this is the soap... Anyone know how it compares to their creams?

Quote:HoosierShaveI got to beta this soap during Hannah's experiment stage. It was fun working with each of I think 7 bases and about that many scents. Very nice soap that they settled on.
First go-round with Soap Science (Doc's Special Blend) and I'm actually very impressed. The scent is "meh" and, to me, is a mostly medicinal scent. Lots of eucalyptus which I don't mind and it's only mid-strength so, overall, not bad for me but not one of my favorites either. On a positive note, because it's mid-strength, it doesn't "stick around" after the final rinse of witch hazel which allows me to pick any splash I prefer.
I was mostly impressed with the lather and the slickness generated. The soap has that nice gooey-like and shiny yogurt-like consistency that I really crave and I would put the slickness on par with MW, if not a little slicker. It's going to take more uses to confirm that comparison but, initially, that's what it reminds me of. Looking forward to using this one again
