It's definitely getting close...i'd say about 1/3 remaining. But I'm in no hurry to finish this one. The lather is really nice but the scent is where it's at! This is the scent of a good cigar. The kind worthy of a deep inhale prior to warming up for the light. I used to be a big cigar and pipe enthusiast but tobacco hasn't touched these lips since Aug 7, 2014. This soap always brings back fond memories of sitting around with good friends and a good stoge!

Is this sandalwood? Well, that’s debatable. If you’re looking for the milky sweet smell of Mysore sandal, you’ll likely be disappointed. What you’ll find instead is eucalyptus, camphor, clove, bergamot, neroli, ylang ylang, patchouli, and rosemary. Oh, and there’s a few slivers of spicy red sandalwood thrown in, too. So it’s got all the fixings for a great fall cologne, and I’d be lying to say I didn’t really enjoy it even though it’s not the purist interpretation of sandalwood. I especially like the camphor and rosemary while I’m shaving, and after a while the herby bits dry down into a spicy base that rides around with me all day.

Is there a woodpile's worth of sandalwood write-ups coming our way?
