The Obie Memorial First Tier Soaps and Creams Thread.

[markbignosekelly]

You won’t need to bloom the new formula at all Joseph. I’m using an old puck of the Elite in the shower now, lovely bath soap.

Oddly, I like the scent of the Elite soap as much as the 89, but the Elite EdT (bought directly from Floris) doesn’t strike me the same way as the soap. Go figure.

Funny you say that because the 89 soap has an amazing scent imo, it lead me to buy the 89 EDT which now i cannot stand.
I have tried to convince myself to like it but failed..
One thing i did realise is that early morning usage makes it much more acceptable to my nose

I've found the same with a few soap/cream and EDT combos. The EDT are far more concentrated fragrance.

I love Floris 89 edt. Very James Bond. Suave and sophisticated. Just like myself.....

Generally speaking the British creams are superior to the soaps but once my Floris 89 cream has run out I'm going to try the soap.
