I voted! Have you?
 
Dark Warrior & California Sunshine! Which scent will dominate? 🤔
That award will have to go to California Sunshine. Dark Warrior is a great smelling soap base and scent (I’m still having problems building a good lather with it unfortunately), however the scent remains very close to the skin and doesn’t really last that long.

Tough workout last night, especially after a week off.

Had about all I can take out of this soap. Again, good face feel, there’s definitely slickness, great scent…just does not want to even moderately lather well for me. Fortunately it’s already in extreme donut stage. It’ll get mixed up into the Clown Puke tub later.
