Barrister and Mann

I checked out the contest results on Reddit for Adumbrare and I wouldn't have done so bad if I'd guessed.  My first thought when I smelled it was black currant - I had a hint of a sense from the Latha Sandalwood and Black Currant.  I'm not surprised that nobody got more than 2 of the scent ingredients - very complex and difficult to parse out individual accords for the average nose.  Kind of a fun contest.

Would there be any issue with posting the scent results or a link here?

I don't think that would be a problem. Do you have the link? If not I can try to find it and post it.

Little sweeter than I like but the soap performs well. The AS to me smells much differently than the tub which is a good thing as the sweetness is lessened.

I just wanted to pay a compliment to Will and the job he did with Fougere Gothique EDP. I just put some on and I absolutely love the scent. It is fantastic.

How is the longevity?

Jacinthe is one that surprised me. Reading The scent profile, I conjured an odd floral vegetable scent. It is not. Very nice lemon sweet that is rounded off by the other green components (I guess the tomato leaf). I’m not really great at describing in depth what I detect. I am just pleasantly surprised by it and agree it is a very nice spring scent.

The AS was much more subtle than I expected.

I shaved with the original white label Roam earlier this week. What a great soap.

I used an old white label base soap today as well. I like glissant and the reserve is nice, but of all of the soaps the white label base seems to yield the best lather results for me.

You're not in need of more, are you?

It is indeed a heavenly smelling soap!
