Day 17 of Atlas Shaves 2 – Electric Boogaloo Mon 17 Feb 2025

What is it with LatherBot and Soap Smooth? I hadn’t even heard of that soaper before AS2EB and today is the second time it came up when it counted, and with a 9-note scent to boot: Sandalwood Ten by Soap Smooth, notes: sandalwood, vanilla, amyris, musk, rosewood, petitgrain, cedar, ylang-ylang, bergamot.
Luckily both Texaus and Eclipse are scent note matches, so I live another day:
Eclipse notes: rum, cocoa, cistus, russian leather, bergamot, pink peppercorn, fig, musk, sandalwood, cedar, carnation, benzoin, amyris, mimosa, oud, narcissus, tobacco, lavender, civet.
