Thats good to know. You'll notice a difference I think. I haven't tried their vegan but I have tried the beef tallow, Cabellero and both Rougere and Shiloh duck tallow soaps are noticeably slicker. They're really nice soaps.

Or else they will just go back to using the droplet for all soaps. It’d be nice if you could tell the difference by just looking at that little icon, but it’s perhaps too much of a hassle in the long run. Labels are expensive, and producing two different lines for all soaps might be impractical.
wyze0ne, did you get those directly through their site? (I know everything is sold out now, but I hadn’t seen those there earlier, either.)
Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

Yes I did Matthew. I'll let you all in on a little "secret". Go on Instagram and follow @oleoinsiders. There you'll find instructions on how to see a hidden page on their website with different scents and soap bases!

Nice. I had a glass bottle of this back in the 70s but it didn't have a bakelite cap.
I got my tub of Barrister and Mann Roam from Top of the Chain today and I also ordered a tub of Dr. Jon's Aphrodite shaving soap. I went back and forth on that soap for a bit because of my experience with their Cedar and Rose soap but like always, I went ahead and ordered it. It smells very nice - black currant, rose apple and pomegranate. Really nice.
