I find if you leave the lids off soaps over time the scent tends to dissipate.

I try and leave the cover off for an hour or so after use so it dries but cover it after that. Of course my MDC is the "Brain" version in a wood cup so there is no cover so I had to rig up a cover of sorts.

I just put the lid on it without screwing it down.

Jerry I thought you cant smell, so what does it matter,, maybe it smells just fine and its your nose!. Tc

Their brain bowl is uncovered, and seems to maintain it's scent. However, I shave in the morning and leave the cover off hard soaps, such as MdC, to dry out during the day, then cover them in the evening.

^^^^^same^^^^

I have a "brand new" MDC Brain Bowl which I haven't touched yet. It's still in the paper wrapping. I guess I got it 3-4 years ago. It's lost probably 60% of the scent.

In my experience with one brain bowl, once you start lathering the outer layer away, the scent will come back. However, mine didn't sit for 3 - 4 years as I started using it right away, although it seemed like 3 - 4 years until I had polished it off, as I only used it once or twice a week.

What lid?
