I'm very curious about Bois de Neroli and of course excited for Aether. Regarding the former - how prominently is the neroli note? Is the Orris and Wood Accord the "support" for the scent, or vice versa? It's such a tricky note to work with!

Also, inquiring minds are curious - have the ingredient lists for the two formulae been released as of yet?

Thanks so much again Mohammed, for pushing the envelope!

I once heard or read somewhere - I can't remember the source: "dirtying up the florals". This is what I tried to do with the Magnolia and Bois de Neroli. Both are heavily floral, but the floralness is tempered with the incense in the Magnolia and with the wood accord in the Bois de Neroli. The orris brings about clean, cotton powdery notes. Both have lots of citruses too.

The ingredient lists are quite similar to the ingredients in the original soy wax base. I removed the soy wax but added other waxes Smile I'll post the ingredient lists next weekend.

Thank you so much for the compliment, I hope you find my answers satisfactory.

Mohammed, I personally love what you are doing, the passion you have for this and the respect you show to all. It is impressive.

And I haven't yet been able to try your soap. But if it is as I suspect, you have found another customer.

The price is $19 per 4 ounces. USA Shipping is always free & upgraded to Priority shipping at $35. I do have some good news for our Canadian neighbors but I can't say anything yet Smile

Cool Smile It really does look Bet (ב‎) & Gimel (ג‎) But this is the Japanese word for Yuzu! Here is the Hebrew word for Yuzu יוזו
