Oz Shaving Co. – Soap Sample PASS

I decided to smell everything before looking up info on th he scents.

So the standouts on the initial sniff are tic-tok, polycrome, tornadic, and woodsman.

Oil can was no at all what I expected but nice.

I don't think ouds are for me. Cloying isn't quite the right word but it's the closest I can think of at the moment. Most of the samples were at worst neutral except for a few that were just no for me.

I'm going to run through them again in a few hrs and see which ones I for sure want to try.

So I have determined my top 3 from the samples. Tik-Tok, Tornadic and Woodsman. Today I decided to try the Tik-Tok as it was the one I feel I would be least likely to reach for just based off the smell from the container. Overall I really did enjoy the scent but I think it's just a bit to sweet for me to want to use it regularly.

I probably should have scoop a bit more out than I did as my lather ended up going on a bit thin. But still provided a good medium for a solid BBS shave.

As for the soap, today's lather was leaps and bounds better than yesterday and I really like the extremely fresh scent of Tornadic. This one makes my list to pick up soon for sure.

I think i am happy calling it there. @Spider should i just send this back your way?
 
Guys, I got the samples back from Eric a few days ago, and I’m in awe of how much of them is left after going through 7 testers. I really figured each person would take about 1/4 of each sample they wanted to try, because that’s how much I use when testing a new soap. After 7 testers, had don’t think any of them have been used by 1/4. I just hope that everyone used enough, to adequately judge the soap.

And I included a bunch of samples of other soaps, that I wanted gone by the time this pass was up..... turns out, others added to it, and I think there is now more soap in it in the end, than there was in the beginning.

Just speaks to the consideration and giving nature of Cadre members.... but seriously guys, I WAS trying to get rid of soap!
 
Haha, I just sniffed since I was first and wanted everyone to get a chance. You had already sent me a sample of Yellow Brick....
