    Same 😅:

    I know that DG has a soap called Delta-V. I looked at B Cubed and think, B -> Magnetic field -> Teslas. Can’t think of an equation that includes B^3^. So I look at the soap description. A riff on bay rum? [Big fan of bay rum, I need to try this soap] What’s with the name?

        Thanks for that! I spent too much of my university years with Maxwell’s equations.

      Oh, and the name is derived from "Blackberry Blossom Bay ", and it's a bay rum
