After the above comments I had to go smell. Bathroom still smells wonderful. If you put your nose right on the Tabac it smells like... well, soap. :) I don't think the mixture smell lingers more than a couple of hours so after that I'm assuming the smell is all from the Tabac. Room scent is definitely different from nose on soap smell.
quick side question (I know, I know). I don't need to cover the Tabac when not in use do I? I shave almost every day. Pour a 2 or 3 table spoons of boiling water on the Tabac, shower, put some Proraso and a few drops of glycerin in a bowl, lather just a bit on the Tabac, pour remaining liquid from Tabac bowl into lather bowl and make a lather in that. I suppose when I get a couple more soaps I might want lids in order to be selective with the bathroom scent.
