    Default Does anyone else smell the beef in a tallow soap?

    I was shaving with a great tallow soap, Dapper Dragon's Ice Wyrm, and due to the fact that it's a tallow soap with both rosemary and black pepper, I'd would have sworn I was rubbing my
    face with a ribeye from Ruth's Chris. Or maybe my nose was playing tricks on me! Either way, it wasn't a bad experience at all. Just strange.

    Has anyone else picked up beefy notes from their beef tallow soap?

    There is something in Cella underneath the cherry-almond that's similar to the fat left in the pan after cooking a steak. It's not the dominant scent but it's noticeable.

    I've not used either of these but I've never noticed anything similar with tallow soaps I have. The cherry Cella aside, all you'd need is a little garlic and salt for steak seasoning. It makes me think of buying another one rib prime roast and grilling it, rosemary is great with prime rib no matter how you cook it.

    I note that in Cella also, I don't mind it, but it is there.

    Nope, but maybe that's why I want steak and eggs for breakfast
    It's a dog eat dog world and I have on milk bone underwear.
