    You, sir, need to re-smell Play-Doh.

    RyX DoH!

    I don't recall that one and didn't get a sample.
    I'm thinking PlayDoh - must be The Veg?

    The box has a myriad of choices. I been thoroughly enjoying the vendor samples. Was very impressed with ; Crowne and Crane, Gingers Garden, and Jeeves. All soaps I have never tried. I took sample of several of the Stirling and the Roue 66.

    I tidied up the box to make room for my add ins. I probably do a one for one swap on several the soaps in the box. I'am overwhelmed with the endless choices. a person could easily spend a month trying everything.

    I used the Route 66 Cranberry Citrus today. Fantastic scent! This is one soap that has an everlasting scent, very strong. I guess they went heavier on the scented oils which, is a huge plus for me. I can see myself buying a tub of this stuff.

    Stirling Glacial Wintergreen definitely has the cooling going on. Combined a numbingly chill soap, a fresh blade, an aggressive razor I haven't used in months for an acceptable CCS with no errors. A splash of Blue Juice to carry on the chill for a fine finish.

    Two more days and this box will be on the move again. I think this is worse than a kid waiting for Christmas morning!

    I have tried the vendor samples, was very impressed with all them. I'm already a huge of Stirling soaps. Definitely adding to my wish will be Jeeves, Crowne and Crane, and Route 66. My sense of smell has decreased since my by pass. All these soaps were strong enough for me to smell. They also bloomed very well filling the bathroom with a nice scent.

    Like all good things it is time for the box to go down the road and let the next person enjoy it. One could easily spend a month sampling everything.

    I have a down a even swap the green tube was nearly empty, to save space I took it. I also took the two Pacific tubes. At the last minute I added one soap not pictured.

    It will be posted tomorrow. I will post the tracking number.

    Awesome job, Brad! Thanks for taking some things and swapping out. That keeps the box fresh and the contents always shifting. I like that! You put in some really nice stuff for the next folks to try.

    If it hasn't been boxed up, could you leave a very small sample of the acqua di florida? If it has, don't worry about it.

    RyX DoH!

    I see you choose three I put in! The Caffinated aftershave to match up with the cream, Acqua di Florida - a Ginger's Garden tallow, and Hesperide cream.
    Glad you found items that suit your style.

    The vendor samples went back in, correct? I think they wanted certain soaps to remain and not be swappable.

    From first post:
    The photo might have been misleading...

    I think Brad just took a little out of the vendor samples and put them in his own plastic bags. You can see green writing on the bags. The vendor bags I provided have a sticker on them with instructions. I think we're all good!

    I will say you too added items, like Gin and Tonic and Coniferous, that I am dying to try.

    Thanks for your generosity!

    I

    To clarify, I took small samples of vendors samples, placed them in my own bags. The vendor samples remain in their original bags. Sorry if had misled anyone on that issue.

    No problem Brad. It is my fault. I think I am having box anticipation withdrawal. I will look forward to the reviews you post.

    Enjoy your spoils!!!
