Thanks Chris, ans surprisingly it is not Initial Drydown is slower that expected with the Lemongrass and petitgrain holding on for about an hour and then the Speick florals and PAtchouli ( although just used as a carrier I think) stay around and nice whiffs throughout the day some 7 hrs later and even the lemongrass teases a bit as well. Very impressed and would be a good "Go to Work frag" plus one of the few frags that is good for your skin
no Video here today due to Workshop video

I would think the scent and oils etc are permeated throughout the soap so I'm not concerned about that myself. That said, I'm with you that this ain't for me at all. Nice shave Dave as always !
I have High Standards, so "Meh" could be outstanding for some, LOL. you know us "high born" types

ETHOS / CBL Fresh Lime Soap/Skin Food Review 05.19.2020
Review of: Ethos /CBL Fresh Lime Shave Soap and Skin Food Aftershave Splash Initial Thoughts: (5.0/5.0) Packaging is very nice at this price point, with raffia paper, good boxing and pouches. A 4oz tub, filled almost to brim, the most telling attribute is the initial fragrance off the soap...

Just now catching up on your past videos and your CBL/ETHOS review. Awesome stuff Dave! I'm not shocked the Fresh Lime soap and sfs exceeded expectations though. ETHOS and CBL are the only soaps (of the ones I have tried) that have gotten above 23/25 (on my own scoring system). I can only imagine, for now at least, what those two artisans can do together! I am really pumped to get my hands on the set now!
