For me, "Acquisition August" has been all about the soaps. I have been aggressively researching, buying, and trading a variety of different soaps this month. I came across this story about the new rustic shave soap by WSP. The low cost made it impossible to not give it a try. I ordered a full puck of the Barbershop scent and paid less than $9 bucks shipped to my door. I added the link to the background story...from the WSP website http://wetshavingproducts.com/wsp-rustic-shaving-soap-the-story/ Scent Profiles Fougere Noire – A Drakkar Noire type scent Mahogany - Italian Bergamot, Apple Wood and Tonka Bean, Patchouli, Cedarwood, and Oakmoss, Cardamom, Vanilla Bourbon and Allspice. Marrakesh - Bamboo, Vetiver Grass, Vanilla Orchid and Myrrh mix beautifully with Tangerine, Patchouli and Clove Leaf. Tobacco - Top notes of bay leaf and fir needle mingle with cedarwood and bergamot to reveal a warm tobacco base note. Vetiver - Vetiver blended with lemon, rosemary, sandalwood, patchouli, & musk. I am sure glad that I pulled the trigger on this soap, and have been pleasantly surprised by the performance. If you like the Cold River Soap Works American Barbershop scent, then you will definitely enjoy the WSP Rustic Barbershop. It's hard to find anything negative to say about this recent addition, and for less than $9 bucks, what do you have to lose? For the price, it's hard to beat! Seeing is Believing...here are the Pics:
Dang... and here i thought I was gonna stop buying soaps for a while... Gonna order me some Mahogany and Barbershop this Monday.
Thanks for posting this! I bought a tin of Fougere Noire. I was going to stop buying for the rest of the year.
Im glad to see such a positive response. I hope you guys enjoy the soaps you ordered. Now that I know Im happy with the performance, Im going to look at adding more scents.
I just got my tin of Barbershop today... I'm looking forward to shaving in the morning. It smells great, and the sample was very easy to lather, so my expectations are pretty high.
Sounds like another pair of happy customers. I have used mine a couple times already, and its a great performer. Im glad you guys had a positive experience. I will continue to share great deals as I find them.
When they arrive, would you please share your impressions of the mahogany scent. Im curious about that one, and wonder if it will be a nice addition for the upcoming fall season.
Yeah I'll let y'all know, I'm gonna try that one first. I'm scheduled to get them Monday but I'm hoping to get them Saturday.
I was stumbling through daBay, I came across WSP Rustic Unscented. $6.12 delivered. Hit buy! Can not pass up a deal like that.
See what happens when you troll the Bay. Heck, I almost just bought the Barbershop. One of my fav scents. But...September is my month of restraint.
