Haven't tried it, but since its the same base as the Vetiver I know we're in for a treat.

Lol! Good thing you are able to edit.

I remember this happened to me at another forum, everybody thought I was high or something.

Too late when I saw it.. Ha-ha!

Mickey Oberman, just wait until Gareth at @TheHandleBar gets his shipment in. It will come from California so hopefully the shipping will be cheaper than from Italy. Hopefully....

@"TheHandleBar", can you confirm what it typically costs you to ship to Canada?

There is no "typical".
The variations are beyond belief.
It is obvious that some vendors use grossly inflate shipping costs to boost their profits.
Ultimately that hurts all the vendors when people like me seriously reduce their purchases from the American market.

And comments like "May not sell to Canadians." or similar statements do nothing to endear or encourage, a substantial 10% of the North American market, from spending our loonies in the USA.

I do think it absurd the shipping costs - I recently shipped some stuff [small box, not much] to a friend in Canada and it was $36USD.

I should have just bought an airline ticket and turned it into a visit.

The great thing, there are some really remarkable products coming out of Canada: Tallow + Steel, First Canadian, Soapy Bathman, Henri et Victoria, etc. that are closer to home and will save on the shipping.

So.... how's everyone liking it so far?
I'm not taking a jar for myself on this batch, waiting until next go-round so other folks can have at it first.

I loved the performace of the Pure20 Vetiver but the scent was just meh.   The DFS Pure20 smells great and the performance is just as good.  

I love Pure20.    IMO, only Nuavia and MdC are better soaps.

I have the Vetiver, and I too don't really care for the scent but I really enjoy the shaves it provides. I'm just not a vetiver guy though.
