What do you have 'Out for Delivery' ?

BadDad, I would love to hear what you think of the two tobacco soaps once you get a chance to use them!

Will do!

I already have 3 soaps from C&C, both vegan and tallow formulations, and they all perform very well. On top of fantastic performance, which is easily on par with B&M Latha and L&L Grooming, Karl's scent profiles are just beautiful. I don't know how he does it, but I have never smelled any soaps that are as deep and fragrant as Karl's are. Just gorgeous melodies of scent...

Local Post Office seems to be trying to make up for the fiasco they created getting my Stirling badger brush to me.... That one spent 3 days jumping all over California before finally settling on my doorstep...

Anyhoo...

Today, I currently have my Crowne & Crane soap delivery is out! I wasn't expecting it until tomorrow, at the earliest, and was even holding my excitement, as I didn't actually expect it until Friday, given the recent transgressions of the USPS, but I just received that ever-important "Out for Delivery" text!

Honestly, I cannot WAIT to get home and have a shave with the Tobacco Leaf & Amber soap. I am SO excited for this scent!

I have some Acqua di Parma Colonia Body Cream coming.  I love the Colonia scent, but my skin did not tolerate either the aftershave or balm.  I'm going to try using this as an aftershave balm, hoping it is tolerated.  If not, I can still use it after showers as a body cream in place of a stick deodorant.

Late 1800's Moss & Gambles Sheffield Extra Hollow Ground - Special Steel 11/16"- I tried an extra hollow ground razor in the passaround and I miss it. So for a song, this is mine.

I have a couple exciting boxes en route!

First up is another Stirling order, filled with Arkadia soap and splash, and a couple of soap tins for samples and refill pucks. I cannot wait to get my hands on this soap and splash set...

Next up...another order from JapaneseNaturalStones.com I have been looking for a new bevel setter for razors, so I ordered a JNS 1000 Matukusuyama, which is a synthetic stone made with natural particles in the 800-1k range, and a Red Aoto synthetic in the 2-4k range...

Not as exciting those straights but.......

The good thing about Pasteurs Pharmacy is... All the excitement of a mailcall - without the wait. And knowing you're supporting a local B&M!
