Barrister and Mann

Sorry, jags009, but I am solidly in the glissant camp and dislike reserve so, obviously, I would want Will to keep both, which he said he plans to do.

Plans to keep both the bases in a soap? Ex: Seville in Glissant and Reserve both. That's rather unlikely. Have not understood it completly.

Seville is a Glissant base scent not in Reserve, unless something changed.

I apologize for the misunderstanding. No, some soaps will be in the glissant formula while others will be in the reserve formula.

I like both, but prefer Glissant. If one went away, I wouldn’t lose any sleep.

I just picked up a Bay Rum soap the other day after reading about the bay crop shortage. I’m pretty excited about that soap.

I have not gone through the entire thread and am not sure if this question has been asked by anyone before.

Does B&M intend to replace the regular base with a reserve base in all of it's soaps?

The reason I am asking is because I find reserve to be a more superior product and would be great if all the classic/regular scents be provided in this base.

Answers pls.

Nope. Been asked a few times.

Will has said he is a perfumer that makes soaps. If he decided to sell off B&M soaps I think he would short himself with not having glissant as well as the reserve options.

Also, like the gun debate he has his glissant fanboys that would freak.

I'm a big Reserve base guy myself. I'd love to see a glissant or reserve option as a drop down when buying a soap (think vegan or tallow options) but from past replies don't hold your breath.

This would be the correct answer, yes. We offer the two lines in order to provide variety, but it would be immensely expensive to transition the entire Classic line to Reserve, to say nothing of the outcry from fans of Glissant. The catalog will stay as it is, at least in that respect.

Hey Will, like many of your customers that have been using your products since the start or almost from the start, I like and enjoy all of your soap bases from the original classic line to the glissant and the reserve base. How could I not? You don't stop loving your first born just because you had a second child or a third do you? Sure some people like one base more than another or kyovu more than tonique or some fragrances more than others but thats certainly no reason to disparage those people in my opinion. Like any business I would assume that B&M will keep making those products that sell and if they no longer sell enough to justify their continuation they join they ranks of the discontinued whether people freak or not. Thats how it goes.

I just wanted to say thanks Will, I love what you've done and I'm excited to see whats coming down the pipe.

Thanks very much, Marko! I'm looking forward to unveiling all of the shiny new things that we've had in development, starting with Just Right for a Tuesday. I've been working on the composition for well over a year at this point and am excited to have people finally smell it.

Cool, its about time somebody gave some credit to the most under appreciated day of the week! I mean really, one Rolling Stones song and thats it? (Ruby Tuesday). I''m looking forward to it.

WooHoo... 42 is coming back!

Thank you, Will...
