LatherBot really has a thing for rare and extinct soap brands this month. I don’t have any Dapper Dragon soap. Luckily, Naranja with its single blood orange note gives me a number of options.

I went with Scrooge, which has notes of oak, cognac, blood orange, bitters, sandalwood, sea salt, clove, nutmeg, rum for two points.

I bought Brut Oceans following u/frankieIVfingers’ suggestion and it’s a fun pickup. It’s fresh and aquatic, diametrically opposed to the sharp green and woody original in initial feel, yet it still reminds me of it with aromatic and woody background notes. When I’m free of AS2EB-related duties, I’ll have to combine l try and combine this with BaM Waves.

A nice FLS to start the day before a BVWSC SLS later today.
