I just receive the Aion in Nai Base.  It has a very pleasant light woody scent that balances well with the scent of the ingredients.  It is a very firm soap that should last a long time; my thumb pressed firmly on the soap barely leaves an indentation.  It is perhaps one of the firmer GD soaps I have tried.  It also has 5.25-5.5 ounces of soap in the container versus the 4 ounces as predicted.  I can't wait to shave with it in the morning.

Just had my first shave with Aion tonight and it was nothing short of spectacular.
Razor: Wolfman WR1 .94 OC SS
Blade: KAI
Brush: DG B8 28mm

Scent was pretty subtle to my nose but a pleasant woodsy scent.
Performance was top notch, slickness and residual slickness are only higher in a few soaps that use some chemicals that I’m trying to get away from moving forward. Don’t get me wrong, this base is incredibly protective even when there’s no visible lather.
Post shave is where this soap really shines, absolutely elite and second to none. I felt like I’d used an aftershave and moisturizer without actually having used anything.
11/10 would lather again!

Glad I bought two jars and really hoping this base makes a return in some other scents.

Thanks to Mo and all his hard work and to my good friend ScientificShaves for the recommendation.
