I picked up this soap years ago because I liked the label art and I enjoyed the P&B performance. (Spitfire will always be a favorite). When I got it though I really was disappointed with the scent. It seemed to lack character to me. It was billed as a floral which I generally don’t favor but to my nose it was never much of a floral affair at all but was much dirtier than florals generally run. It shaved good. It smelled ok. Generally it was an ok soap. Well I don’t know what happened during covid but I pop the top now and find a soap scent so deep and twisting that it doesn’t seem like the same stuff. I get a much darker vibe now. Perhaps the light florals have faded? At any rate, I would replace this soap when it’s gone but not with a brand new one but one that someone lost in 5he soap closet in 2018. Great shave and an awesome scent (now).

Salty Sea Sage (Meißner Tremonia) sage & salt

Starts off smelling strongly of sage (the kind you cook with) and ends up smelling – and feeling – very salty. There’s also some cinnamon and amyris listed among the ingredients, but to be honest, I can’t smell them. And like I said, it’s very salty. So salty in fact, it dries my nose when I sniff the jar. So I moved it to the kitchen where it seems more at home.
