I’ve got lots of milled soap pucks but have ignored them for awhile.  Why?  The last few shaves I’ve focused on those hard pucks and have realized how much I enjoy the process of putting a brush to a soap.  So much so that I decided to open two brand new old stock soaps.  Geo F Trumper Coconut and Trumper Lime.  Both of these pucks a pre-Trumper-lost-their-mind and switched from a potassium palmate first ingredient mix.  These soaps are a good as the new formulation is bad.  Coconut smells more like a coconut oil than a copper tone tanning lotion.

That soap formula seems like such a mish-mask of aromas it is hard to see them working well together. Do lavender and leather really go together?

I am curious as to what was your experience with the scent.

The amber is the strongest note. I like this scent, so it works for me. I haven't decided about the soap base yet.

Cheshire (Barrister & Mann) bergamot, sage, patchouli
Shave 4 ・ 106 g left

This is my second tub of Cheshire. The first, which I bought back in 2014, smelled like lemon and pine. At least that’s what my untrained nose made of it then. Over the years I’ve learned a lot about scents. Now when I smell Cheshire, I get bergamot and lots of patchouli. I mean a lot of patchouli. The sage is clary sage, not cooking sage. It has a mellow hay-like aroma. Altogether these three notes make a fresh, well grounded accord that may be Will’s best original work.
