    I have mine under an old pocket watch glass dome. Pull the dome off and take a whiff on occasion. Nice!
    I suppose I have had it a year.
    About a half a jar left and I shall be a bowl rubber like Richard and Steve....
    I prefer 'ice cream bowl' myself!

    Gentlemen,

    I have been meaning to order another brain bowl. My previous one lasted several years. Anyway, after the shave, I leave the jar uncovered for several hours before covering it until the next use. What pleasure Martin de Candre.

    just wooden bowl of MDC that when they put it in the bowl it looks like a bowl full of brains. and its not a puck either, its cool and its just another way to get it instead of the jar

    Well, yesterday I found and unwrapped my brain bowl of MDC. I thought I had gotten it around 3 years ago but it turns out is was more like 5 years ago maybe older.

    First thing I noticed the product had shrunk by about 20%. I also noticed the scent was about 60% gone and the next thing I noticed the glide and cushion had deteriorated somewhat. It still performed OK but there was a definite deterioration.

    It was interesting to compare it to a tub of Castle Forbes which was about as old and it hadn't lost anything.

    I put the lid back on after I finish up my shave, so the puck still has some residual moisture. I have seen no degradation at all in the 4-5 years that I have had my first two pucks of MDC.

    Lordy!~ Reckon I shall pry that boulder on top off and send it to a buddy.
    Time to use it. My half-jar will be perfect as I travel. Will be doing more of that.
    Bust-out the bowl.....It's under a glass dome.
    Get right on that!

    Surrounded by glass it's still shaped like a puck.
