Eau de Magnolia is a hit and the floral scent continues to echo from my face following my shave. I did not use any form of aftershave and am glad I did not do so. Just a really nice scent.
OTOH, I am not so sure about Oud Osmanthus. I did get a hint of oud from it but the entire scent package was too faint for my taste. Hopefully, further usage will change this initial impression. I did follow up that shave with Shannon's Indigo Oud aftershave and it proved to be an excellent pairing.
Last up for this release will be English Lavender. Putting my nose to the puck I smell a nice combination of lemon and lavender and I am sure my shave will reflect that combination. This is one of Mo's all natural scents--essential oils and absolutes. If past experience with similar GD soaps is any indication, the ideal usage date will be sooner rather than later as these soaps have, for me, not shown scent longevity.
