    Default L'Occitane

    Anyone have a favorite colonge from L'Occitane?
    I like the Cade shave soap and ASB but they do not offer a colonge in CADE.
    It's the subtle but distinct scents that I prefer, I have the feeling L'Occitane products offer that?

    I sampled the colognes that L'Occitane offers and their vetiver (or more appropriately, "Vetyver" ) was the one that stood out the most to me. The others were okay but unremarkable IMO.

    My only experience with vetiver is RazorRocks "Nervous Wreck" shave soap. Have you ever tried it?

    I really like their scents, my favourite being Baux the Vetyver is another quality scent in my opinion, but their face and bath soaps are top quality, I love the Verbena and Cedarwood soaps.

    Going with the Baux, ordered it yesterday....thanks for the help gentlemen! This one seems to be the only scent with a complete lineup excluding a splash. I most certainly would have gone with CADE if they had offered it.

    Ordered my Wife some perfume also.....Mothers day is coming up, and I'm usually very bad at remebering special days.....I have to keep the expections low . So this should throw her off.....I just need to figure out what else to get her. I always heard a good rule of thumb for gifts are, to cover your bases with the senses - scent, sight, touch, taste, hear

    Baux showed up in the mail today. I like it, nice subtle manly scent kinda reminds me of CO Bigelow black. I still wish they had CADE in a splash and cologne...

    Glad to hear you enjoy it. I also wish that they had a Cade cologne or splash, I love the smell of the soap

    I didn't know they had CADE soap, I did see the shower gel. I'm going to have to take a look again....
