What do you have in the post right now?

[Holiday]

Shameless theft of @Irish of Forgotten Art's pictures, but these are going to be in my hands shortly

Beautiful looking set @Wilkshire13 and @Irish. What's the knot?

 

[Wilkshire13]

That lather bowl looks unbreakable ???

I hope so, but resin shatters under sufficient force from memory

@Wilkshire13 I'm not a lather bowl person, but that's a lather bowl I would add to the den.

I tell him this every time he turns something that catches my eye, but he has really outdone himself with these bowls and this blue pour is spectacular.

Cheers! I want to say 2-Band Badger...

Haha, if you are willing to pay for one for testing purposes, sure

Kewl. I saw some of his matching bowls/brushes a few weeks ago, and immediately thought "I want this". But the exchequer won't stand for it at the moment. Is that a 26mm badger?

On their own, like $90ish I think

Not sure on the knot size, to be honest, 24mm or 26mm probably

I buckled to the peer pressure and ordered Noble Otter Barrbarr. I thought I had too many soaps then I saw @SpeedyPC collection and then was reminded of @Mark1966 collection, one more won't hurt

Couldn't resist the chance to support @SchoolForAnts who makes some awesome soaps/scents!

Just submitted my order. Have been on the lookout for a ‘marine’ scent for a while. That combined with Squardons soap base should be a blast

And the splash is sold out. That was super quick.

Luckily I grabbed both as I have nearly all the soaps and only a few matching splashes.

I think I snuck in this time. Thanks to @Mark1966 for the heads up. You had me at marine scent

I must have also been one of the last people to snare the splash

Described by @SchoolForAnts as a unisex scent. Glad the girls are getting a nod here.

Nooo, it has a rose scent in it
But how does one describe this as a marine scent when it is this:

A marine fragrance of Mandarin, Cardamom, Rose, Juniper Berries, Patchouli, Tonka Bean and finally Leather.

I was sold on Patchouli, Tonka Bean and finally Leather.

Well I’m no expert on scent notes or descriptions, but Trufitt & Hill’s 1805 is consistently described as a marine scent and mandarin is the clearest and most prominent top note I can discern. (1805 is a great scent IMO)

Most likely the rose is not the forward scent. I am not a rose fan, some soaps it balances floral element of the scent out nicely.
