Sometimes it is light, almost nonexistent. Then it is back. I experience this in all flavors.
The lather is always good.

This is relieving to hear, don't want to have 4 jars of unscented soap in 5 years. I might get halfway through them by then!

I have the Rose, Vetyver and Citrus somewhere in US customs.
Guess it will be next year before I get to try them.

I've had samples of Rose and Vetyver, and got a jar of Fougere as a present this year. I'm VERY happy with the fougere. The Rose was subtle, but what I respond to is a rose scent is the geranium/geraniol scent, where you get that bite. I would describe the MDC rose as a mixture of the fougere with a layer of Cyril R Salter Wild Rose cream. I liked the MDC rose, but not feeling like I need to have it. I find that there's enough of an overlap between the MDC rose/fougere/vetyver that I personally don't feel the need to load up on the other scents. I'm happy with the jar I have.

A member was nice enough to send me a sample of thr Rose MdC and like a number of you have stated the scent is not my favorite but quality is top notch.. Rose is not a favorite scent of mine so only tried a few sample brands.. I did buy a full puck of Mama Bears though and out all the Rose ive used this has the best scent for my nose... If anyone would like a sample i would be happy to you some.. Non used from inside the puck of course
Give me a PM if interested.
