Mine was just a sample from the Wisconsin Meetup.
No aftershave.

Just tried the Bar Bar. Took a small snurdle with a butter knife, 1/2 of a small almond, and rubbed it into my stubble with my fingers and face lathered into a great lather. The lather reminded me of Tabac, though I haven't used that for years. I love the scent of Bar Bar.

My wife was not at home so I didn't get her input, but its just as well because I put this one into the keeper bag to use when she is out of the house early. I suspect that she would tolerate, but not like, the scent the way she was with Tabac.

I really like this soap.

Meant to try it again this morning but forgot. Tomorrow

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!
