Hey there Rich! The soap is TDS, Note of Sandalwood. It is from my wife's home country, specifically Vitebsk, Belarus near the border with Russia. My Sister-in-law sent me three of their soaps about a month ago and I've found that they are all really nice. I shaved with the one you are using, just once and found the scent not to my liking, too flowery for me. I thought it would be a unique addition to your first box. Here's a link to their website if you want to check out their other soaps, they do ship to the USA (Мыло для бритья | ТДС.БЕЛ ).
The Bravas After Shave lotion is from Japan and has a nice barber shop scent, but it didn't get enough play, so I thought you may enjoy it too. I'm looking forward to the New Years shave!
As of today, box #1 has new tracking info, other than arriving late! It spent 16 days sitting in this black hole, I hope it arrives safely!
