Assuming that’s true, I don’t experience higher quality that is justifies the higher price. However, I do think that the soap and scents are high quality. When I run through this tub of Dragonsbeard, I’ll buy another one.

Damn, you’re not lying. $55 for 4.5 oz. is quite steep compared with other artisans I’m familiar with.
I’m more likely to pick something like this up second-hand, unless I really feel like treating myself.

It is a luxury. That is certain. There are definitely people who buy this and don’t like it. Anything that has Oud in it seems to be polarizing.
