[Optometrist]

Damn virus. Mine departed Spain Tuesday of last week.

Care to describe the scent of Argos?

What's your favourite there?

Difficult..
I am a fan of Manuel's floral aromas and I like them all

If you don't like violets, Sirio is not for you.

Violets is Predominant. But it is very balanced

Smells of cheap, consumer durables I think

For my nose it is spicy floral. very nice indeed!

Boreal is some spicy scent also.

Look forward to Manuel's new creations..he is a soap master! Not sure whether to hug my wallet or hug Manuel...

A small slice of heaven from Manuel, these creations are so elegant and intoxicating. Thank you Manuel!

With Sirio, I love how Manuel has used the hay-like qualities of chamomile to tame the violet. It's brilliant.

These are so good.

@neko how does the Boreal scent smell like? I assume it is woodsy pine/cedar high mountain flora?

From the tin, I can definitely smell the pepper, geranium and cedar wood. The patchouli and oakmoss, not so much, maybe as it's so well blended or as they're usually base notes. It has a modern and exceedingly elegant barbershop vibe.

I received Lima-Especias a few days ago, but the soap was extremely soft, almost floating. Scent and performance was amazing, but I sent an email to Manuel because no other of his bases, and I've tried them all, has been like this. I got a immediate respons from Manuel who said that a small batch of Lima-Especias had looke like they should from the beginning, but after a while they had softened. Whe he discovered that some soaps had already been shipped. Manuel said he was very sorry, numerous times, and he will send me a new soap when he has Lima-Especias in stock again.

In my opinion the new base is impressive, slickness is outstanding. Superior lather and better post shave feel. OMG.
I'm impressed.

That is some professionalism here from Manuel.

Sending a new soap isn't always the case for some, they just say they are sorry.

Manuel seems to be an honest guy.

For that reason I have sold all my Lpl soaps and put three in the trash. Defective soaps were due to misuse by the owner.That was the deduction of the maker.

Manuel is at a different level

What did I just read??
Are you serious?!
But even if it was a misuse by the owner, (though I hardly can believe such thing for every single person here, we all take care for our soaps..), he could sent another one.

You paid your money..
