Cocoa Tobacco: Mammoth Tobacconist Soap and Wholly Kaw Dulci Tobacco Cream

To my nose, the Mammoth Tobacconist splash shows both cocoa and nutty notes, and both of those are also residually present in the Spanish almonds container repurposed for an experimental portion of Tobacconist soap.  Razorock Puros and Stirling Gentleman also saw action.  Effective, pleasing mix.

WK Dulci Tobacco deserves better respect than it gets. No stank of cheap cigars there!

Tundra Artica (Saponificio Varesino) oud sandalwood
Shave 26 ・ 102 g

This is an old soap I’ve left uncovered for years. It sits in a small acacia bowl, originally meant for dipping sauces, which happens to be the perfect size for a puck of Saponificio Varesino. Unfortunately, the bowl has no lid, so the fragrance has long since faded, leaving behind a soapy, slightly sour, woody scent. Today’s lather was mediocre at best, but I can’t bring myself to throw it out. Why? Because its finish is exceptional. It leaves my skin feeling smooth and slightly waxy, yet not greasy, which is perfect for these muggy days when I want my face to feel dry.
