Merry was V3. I’m glad you liked it - I think it is one of my fav scents we’ve made!
I'm a bit late to the party (thanks international shipping) but had my first shave with Orangeilla yesterday. I love this scent more than I imagined. The dark, dense, creamy lather was just amazing.
Ryan @ Tallow + Steel, what is the vanilla content exactly? An essential oil, extract, absolute? It was phenomenal. Well done! I know you said Orangeilla won't come back, but I hope you make something else that is vanilla heavy.

Glad you like it! We used a vanilla extract - cheaper than the absolute which is now ridiculous in price ($15,000+ per kg), but even this extract is getting very expensive.
For that reason, we probably won’t be able to do many other vanilla scents in the near future. This also means that the cost to produce Madagascar is going up quite a bit, and I’m hoping we will be able to continue to offer it.

After reading previous posts, the only question now is if I need to get a "back stock" of Madagascar Thanks
Let me clarify - no need to order duplicates! We have enough material to produce Madagascar for the summer and maybe even fall. We will re-evaluate later in 2019.
