batters up is an interesting soap.. not the scent I was expecting and I think it’s a miss but my wife and I agree that it’s not the worst… though i I can’t think of one offhand that is worse.
Performance is great of cause.

Hi Speedy, definitely not baseballers sweaty jock strap or any of the other weird scents going around

As quoted @ https://paste-and-cut.com.au/community/threads/shave-of-the-day-thread-2021.6618/post-177682

The soap Ariana & Evans -Tibetan Temple. Scent is medium to strong off the tub and medium, for the splash. Scent Notes, Tobacco leaf, honey, iris, sandalwood, amber, musk, frankincense, myrh, smoke, rose, patchouli, Himalayan cedar and hay. This is a beautiful masculine dark refined woody oriental scent which could be used as an evening scent anytime of the year or for colder weather.

To me as I have a fairly wide variety of A&E soaps, it smells very similar to about 1/2 a dozen other soaps that have a similar dark sweet oriental type accord. (Khalifa, Chasing the Dragon, Amber Rose, Revolution, Grecian Horse, Novelist, Vanille de tabac, The Club) If you could take the best elements from the scents of those soaps and combine them together, this is what Tibetan Temple is.
This is 100% two thumbs up from me on the the soap and splash .(y)(y) I may like it more than Khalifa and Grecian horse.
