What soap/cream did you use today?

Acqua di Parma Colonia shaving soap (vintage). The original, one of the best ever.

Warm Woods v. (Meißner Tremonia) cedar, palo santo, pine, incense

Every soap cooker should offer at least one incensy soap. They hit the spot at this time of year when all the green is going to brown and the aroma of wood fires and fresh-cut conifers take the place of the smell of newly cut grass. Warm Woods has all this woody goodness and an added bonus: there’s a sweet, jammy note right at the center of this fragrance. It reminds me of the smell of the sticky sawdust you get when you rip wood that isn’t quite dry. Sappy, sweet, and resinous, it's a very nice autumnal scent.

Meißner Tremonia make a dry soap. I think they run it through a plodder to push out most of the water that goes into the making. What results is a dense puck that responds well to blooming. A few drops of hot water loosens the surface and helps with the loading. Once you’ve got a brush full, be generous with your water. Warm Woods is rich with clay, so you’ve got to get juicy to bring out the slickness.
   

My favorite scent of the best soap base - Ethos Lavender
