Ok... So after reading so many great things about the TSD soap, I've broken down and decided to order a few. Now here's the common problem... Which scents to get? :D I'm pretty set on getting Lime and Bamboo & Teak but wanted to get another 1 or 2. I have to stock up since I don't get to order very often. Can anyone comment on these scents:

Avalanche
Crystal Blue
Dreamsicle
Tea Tree

Any comments are appreciated! Is there anything else that you guys specifically recommend? Thanks!

I can tell you the Avalanche has a beautiful minty scent, and it also is very, very cooling.

They're all quite nice, but if I had to pick one from your list it would be Avalanche.

+1

Bamboo Teak is awesome, but you already have that one. :drool

I mixed the lemongrass and cedarwood soaps together, made a great scent.
Kinda like the ole Charles Tyrwhitt cream. I love the smell.

Ended up getting the Bamboo & Teak and Avalanche. I had to drop down the number of shaving soaps so that I could get some of Issy's bath soaps :P Otherwise would have easily gotten another 1 or 2 puck! We all gotta make sacrifices right? Haha. I can't wait to try them (although it'll be another couple of weeks before I get that pleasure...)

No worries.
I have to do some work around here every now and then to justify my "Mod" paycheck Sparky sends me every week. ;)

No one has ordered the Jasmine yet, if I remember correctly.

I could be wrong. I've made a lot of soaps in the last few months. :o

Vetiver actually goes very well with Bay Rum. There's some vetiver in my custom "spicy island bay" concoction (amongst several other things);)

I've had equal success with any of the above for creams and soaps. I will say, I prefer the Omega Boar for hard soaps or a stiffer brush at least. I'm always afraid I'll start damaging tips in my vigorous attempt to load a brush from a hard soap. Probably just a perception thing, I know. :D
