    Yes, but since it was a limited edition—and all sold out, I thought it wouldn't matter. Of course, if someone was selling theirs in the classifieds, then I would be wrong.

    Dolomiti is essentially the italian Alps and the blurb says that it contains silt from them (they are pretty and notable for the limestone). That's where Varese is located (the city the soap is made in). I have no idea about the scents, but given the other two I'd imagine this is supposed to represent the local smells (Sicily is an island on the other end of the country, and Felce means fern).

    Thanks Gugi, Stephan ,, I guess I'll have to pick up the other two scents now , cause there is a space on my shelf for this stuff ,, thanks for the feedback , I thought the scent might have been called Dolimiti but uneducated me thought that might have been the clay used in it, any way I'll get the other two , great bargain for as good a soap that it is. Tc

    by the way Stephan where do you get it ? Mine was a gift. Thanks

    TC, it's both - your scent is called Dolomiti (the big allcaps letters), and the silt from the Dolomiti is in the blurb to the left of the logo with 1945 (I assume that part would be in all of their soaps).
    From the other scents the aromatic fern is pretty clear, the sicilian manna could be many things (Sicily is best known for lemons, oranges, olives, and some wines but various sun-loving herbs and flowers could be as well). But it's just a marketing name that is supposed to be appealing and not necessarily particularily representative of the region it's named after.

    As the shipping from MdC becomes significantly more and more reasonable with quantity purchased, one could perhaps initiate some sort of a group buy...thinking out loud here...
    !! Enjoy the exquisite taste sharpening sharpening taste exquisite smooth. Please taste the taste enough to ride cutlery.

    I would think maybe it could work but the end user will still have to box it up and ship then,, the guy who use to get it I believe was jmdsoc not sure about the spelling was a member here and he was bringing it In bigger orders and was able to sell it pretty reasonable So it's always possible Mike.

    Love the non-scented. I've got over half dozen multi lather shaves so far and you can hardly tell I've used any. It is still flat as when I opened it. It says to wipe excess off and leave lid off a bit to dry. I can see why now.

    Looks like this stuff will last for ever.

    A bit on the expensive end but it will last for years in my rotation... and then...
