Finally it's here. Smells amazing, as soon as I opened up the crate, I was welcomed with the beautiful fougere scent of MdC.

That was quick, wasn't it?

They didn't mucked around at all, shipped it not too long after I made the payment. So if you found some one up there to share with you, you will know that it wouldn't take long to get it!

Thanks @Osman, thanks to @filobiblic , I got some sample of this great soap before committing to 200g's of it. Pure luxury.

@Psmith and I will be very very happy!

Mail call! The new handle for my iKon Slant DLC. Expensive, but totally worth it. I'm calling it The Dark Night.
I also got some Santa Maria Del Fiore soap. Amazing scent. Very excited about this one. Be warned though, the packaging is heavy so postage hits hard.

YeeeeHaaaa! Finally got my new Semogue SOC 2 Band Finest (best) Badger in Cherry Wood today and it was pretty quick for a normal post delivered, and now I'm going to give this brush a real good clean before I start using it and giving you guys my feedback review very soon on this fantastic looking brush. Thanks @shavetheman I can't wait to get this baby into wet shaving

It's one (of many) favourites. Beautiful scent and stella performance. The Tabacco notes pair beautifully with Alt Innsbruck.
A few blokes have had it split or go lumpy on them. I haven't had that happen to me. I tend to only let this one dry for no more than an hour before putting away. I also store it in a drawer away from heat and dampness. (Also the labels aren't waterproof.)
Enjoy it. It's a beautiful soap!

Thanks to @Psmith I got a few lovely treats to sample out.
LPL, Santa Maria and the tabula rasa cardamom. They all smell amazing. I'm definitely in for a treat. Herbaceous and spices.

Oh some voskhod and rapira too.
