The recurring scent note of this soap is hauntingly beautiful and the performance is exceptional.

At its peak, my hoard weighed over 36 kilos. I had well over 400 tubs of soap littering the shack. Made me feel uneasy, and I was noticing a sort of panicked look in Mrs Bouki’s eyes. So I started to purge, and over the last couple of years I’ve culled close to 20 kilos. Everybody’s feeling much better now. And the momentum is still growing. Since January of this year I’ve given away, combined, or retired 34 more tubs, tubes, and pucks. Doesn’t mean I’ve given up on buying soap althogether. I still pick up a few new soaps now and then, but much of the old stuff is gone. So now I’m down to a mere 134 tubs. Pat my back. But that’s still a lot of shaving soap. What’s next? Well, some of the remaining tubs have backups, so I’ll chip away at those doublets for a while. With luck and determination, some day I may end up with just one of each soap.

Atelier Pomelo Paradiso is marvelous. I am almost empty: and of course they aren't selling in the USA anymore.

Fine Accoutrements - Santal Absolute (Classic) (yesterday)

Their soap smelled better than the AS, so not too upset I don't have backups of the latter. Particularly when there are a couple new players in the field

Tommy, like the others that I recently mentioned I typically use these soaps like a stick and rub on the face (otherwise, I just take the puck out and hold it in my hand for loading). These bowls SUCKED.

Laffd out loud. Yeah, bowls so bad. I kept mine in the boxes, and hand loaded and lathered as well. They really did SUCK. LOL. They need lessons from Frank and Dom
