With fruity scents, I’m an orange or pineapple guy. Turns out even though it’s pear forward, it combines well with the other notes when whipping up the lather and the end results are magic! The performance of this soap is top 10 of ALL TIME for “Me.”

Cheshire t. (Barrister & Mann) bergamot, clary sage
There's more to Cheshire's fragrance than just bergamot and clary sage, but to me, those are the notes that stick out. It's fresh and calming at the same time, one of those scents that works well in any weather, at any time of the year. Bergamot, a citrus, smells like a combination of lemon and bitter orange. Clary sage, an herb, smells like a mix of mint, sage, and hay. Centuries ago it was called 'clear eye' sage. Herbalists recommended using it to clear debris from an eye by putting a seed of the plant into the eye. The foreign bits were supposed to cling to the coating of the seed, which could then be easily removed.

I enjoy the process, and so slowed down with hydration rate. The kiss of death is early foam and a light load.(05-31-2020, 09:56 PM)TommyCarioca Wrote: Stirling SpiceThat looks fantastic!
