Yes. It is possibly the most refined Bay Rum scent in the market. The aftershave balm is also extremely nice.

Right. We are moving to Munich. Which is 700m away from where we are now. A really good friend of mine just lost her husband, and her son is 14. So I was tasked with teaching him how to shave.

[/QUOTE]There is a saying in German which roughly translates into "reading educates". Same for Strong and Scottish, by the way. ;)

The lime scent is dried limes. Visit your favourite Middle Eastern restaurant for most.
The strong and Scottish scent is peat. Pure, unadulterated peat. Lots of it. -

Meißner Tremonia make pastes which, when cured, become soaps. Therefore, the pastes are malleable but not soft like Proraso. More like the latest instalments by Castle Forbes. The soaps are hard. The...

One should keep in mind that the scent is noomi basra, AKA black lime. Less citric, and more interesting than the usual lime scents in my opinion.

Hello, Pierpaolo,
I know who you are. ;) It is a citric scent (more Litsea cubeba than lime) that has nothing to do with the scent of Schwarbier. They just use it for its skin appeal.
