Similar to Uranus

 

[NurseDave]

BWAHAHAHHAHAH!!!!! I kill me!

Dang it Dave! You made me spit coffee.

What does the Saturnia smell like, Ed?

It really is as heady as a Bay Rum would be however it is based on a blend of Tuscan herbs and sulphur rich minerals. It’s hard to describe but it is really nice and strong in scent.

Similar to Uranus

@NurseDave I can’t not comment on that...I didn’t know you knew Sam that well! I can comment that Sam and I do use the same brand of soap..... There does seem to be much more fun going on in my “journal” when I am not here....

 

[woodpusher]

Saturnia sounds like it is worth a go. I heard the sulphur description and wasn't sure if it would be prominent or mild.

In good way it adds a mineral component to it not really sulphur as you expect. RazoRock Saturnia and their Black Bay (no clove Bay Rum) are my two favourite scents from them.

 

[woodpusher]

Cool! I had written off the Black Bay due to no clove, but I'll give that a rethink.

Great to hear from you too Bruce! Apologies if I am not around as much but I got quite a lot on the go and only so much “Ed” to go around. Stay safe...
