Thread: Noble Otter BarrBarr

I just tried the Noble Otter Nectar Amissa. Another winner for me. I used a snurdle considerably smaller than yesterday and still had no trouble face lathering to enough for 3 passes. This soap lends itself to stretching with water which gives me the kind of lather I prefer anyway. The scent, to my nose, has some of the same high notes as the BarrBarr, but it is a simpler very clean fragrance, again to my damaged nose. This is another one that I think my wife would tolerate but not like.

This scent doesn't seem to linger, for better or worse.Probably a good thing in my household.

The Nectar Amissa scent reminds me of Ammens Medicated Powder. Slightly medicinal, but pleasant.

My wife just asked to sniff the samples of BarrBarr and Nectar Amissa. Her reaction to the BarrBarr was pretty much as I predicted, but she liked the Nectar Amissa.

Gentlemen,
I think I tried Noble Otter a while back and was not impressed. Now, at least I think I did, for the name rings a bell. I think someone sent me a sample of it, although I am not sure which scent. Or maybe I'm dreaming all this during one of my many senior moments. OY!

I'm very impressed with this soap. When I saw that they are in Texas I even looked to see if they were anywhere close to Charlie's.

I tried to figure out info on the different formulations that I've seen mentioned, but I did not get anywhere. In any case I think that you owe yourself another try at this brand Obie. Of course I like Arko, so what do I know.

Too bad you were unable to come to the meet. I had plenty of samples to go around. I bought some small sample jars and scooped out several samples each of 20 different soaps from 10 soapmakers. The guys sniffed a bunch of them and then took home those they wanted to try.

I hope you can make it to Dave's next year. I look forward to meeting you.

Ray,
I had waited for the meet a year, but in the end my knee operation and the complications afterward prevented me from making the meet. To my regret, I might add. Next year for sure.
