I was surprised that Talent Soap Factory made it to the MM24 tournament, as small as they are, but I think that just goes to show the special creativity of their scents. TSF has a fantastic lineup of unique scents (doughnuts or grape soda), and sometimes odd scent notes (corn husks, radish, or spray paint). Even their more standard fragrances like Moon Shadow, Riviera, and Seven Stones are excellent. Talent Tuesdays have been my way to experience and enjoy their scents.

I don’t have any TSF products, but what you said about their creativity makes me want some.

They are worth checking out over on Etsy

Yeah, I took a look. I’m not too into gourmand scents. Given that, and that you’ve given me great advice before, what would you suggest I try?

Many of their scents are gourmand or have gourmand aspects, but I would recommend the following scents that lean away from the gourmand:
Of the scents mentioned, only Moon Shadow is currently available. I think they are trying to change everything over to the new Matilda base, so hopefully, they will rerelease some of these other scents soon. Of the ones on their site now, Wolf Mother (campfire and S’mores) and Daddy Long Legs (1920’s Barbershop) have been recommended to me. I’ll probably try those soon.
