    So do the previous scents magically appear as selectable in my cart, or is there a list that I can find somewhere?

    No, you just tell me what you want.

    We'll have to start a thread with the scent list maybe, but so far we have;
    A1 = Crackling Firewood
    A2 = Barber Shoppe
    (the A1, A2, A3 is like the Gillette date code system. A1 means first quarter of 2010, and so on.)

    A2 seems to be the more favored of the first 2, but I prefer A1.

    A3 is still in secret mode. :)

    Hmmm... My wife likes it so much she insisted I use it again tonight, thereby ruining Menthol Monday, which was fine since I love the new scent too.

    If the offer is still open, I'll most certainly take it off your hands. :D

    Well, *I* like the scent. Was kind of hoping along the lines of something menthol, especially with the weather as it has been in the northeast, but part of the fun here is getting stuff I'd never think of in a million years.

    My first reaction sniffing the container was something with the same prefix but a different suffix. But lathering, an additional note or two came out along the lines of the given name. :)

    Insofar as the scent lingering, with TSDQ1 (A1) I found that the scent definitely did linger. With this one there may be a faint trace, but nothing more.

    So I started to quote this post and say "must...not...look....do...not...clicka...the button" but dangit! I can see the HTML font code in the post quote and it gave it away to me!

    Okay, well, now that I know, I NEED IT!

    I really enjoy getting soaps that I would never even think about getting-and being surprised how much I like them. I'd have to say A1 is my favorite and A2and A3 are tied for 2nd. All of them are just outstanding in performance. The only other soap I've used that makes my skin this soft is MWF.

    Thanks JoAnna. Can't wait for the next one and am hoping you'll do it again for 2011 and beyon.

    I'm glad so many folks have enjoyed the SOTQ so far. I'm amazed by how much I've enjoyed it myself. :o

    The majority of members joined during the 1st quarter, but I do have members that joined during the 2nd and 3rd quarters, so yep, I will be doing SOTQ in 2011. :happy088

    JoAnna,

    You are amazing.

    I'd never imagine scents like this on my own. The latest is a joy. Thanks for doing this!

    Any chance one of these little surprises gets menthol in it? It would be interesting to see a new scent frozen with menthol:anifrozen

    No, sorry. Not everyone likes menthol.

    You can always add M-Bomb to the soap, though.

    Maybe next year we can do a menthol and non-menthol option.
     
  15. I enjoy the soap ... however, at risk of heresy, I feel its name isn't completely accurate. This isn't "Jelly Doughnut", this is "Cinnamon Honey-Glazed Doughnut".

    The top-note is honey glaze, with cinnamon right behind, and "sprinkles (link)" in third place. Ain't no "jelly doughnut" aroma in dis here soap, IMHO. That would require the aroma of jelly filling ... which is missing.

    Cinnamon? Wow, our sniffers couldn't be anymore different. :laugh042

    Well now - I have to disagree. I actually bought a jelly doughnut and compared it - pretty darn close if you ask me.

    So now that I've gotten the hang of soaps, I really would like to join the program here...

    Should I wait till B1 season?

    I jumped into the club, head first. It is like the gift that keeps on giving...

    I look forward to a little surprise every quarter.
