I have the petrichor, in fact shaved with it just this morning. The scent is wonderful and the description is spot on, smells just like it does after it rains. The scent is not as strong and in your face as some of the others such as roam or their fougères, but it is there in a pleasant and subtle way.

I recently acquired B&M Bay Rum soap & matching Kyovu aftershave on a B/S/T deal. As a lot of gun owners' bumper stickers say, you'll get that soap when you pry my cold, dead fingers from it...
My first thought when I received my puck of B&M Bay Rum... I'm going to eat this soap! I refrained, settling instead for the wonderful shaves it delivers.
Will just shipped out my Lavanille soap!!!! Can't wait to try it. The Petrichor will probably be my next soap.
i was thinking about getting the sample pack but when samples are at a certain price point, sometimes I just go for the puck that I think I'll like best...so I'll likely just go with cheshire.
The Lavanille is very nice. I am delighted by how great it smells. You're going to be very happy!
Yeah, Lavanille is really, really awesome. Was the original release of Lavanille vegan or tallow?
original was tallow. I got the Lavanille vegan.

+1. Can't go wrong with Seville.
Orignal release was tallow, I have a jar of it though I haven't tried it yet. The follow up batch is vegan. Will makes an excellent vegan soap, I am just now finishing of a jar of Fougere Aromatique in the vegan version. Its been an excellent soap but if forced to pick I would have to say the tallow version performs slightly better for me.
To tell you honestly I haven't tried a tallow soap before. All the soaps I get are vegan soaps. I just found out about B&M just recently.
I have the tre citta tangerine, unscented and lavanille now. I can't wait for Will's fall scents.
Got my B&B sampler yesterday, shaved with solstice this am, SUPER impressed by the lather and slickness, the scent was too late for my liking... UNTIL I started going through the day and all of a sudden the light scent bloomed into happy goodness all around my head.
Came home to buy a selection including solstice, one of the new vetiver, petrichor, and lavanille. Unfortunately the lavanille was already sold out 😢

I ordered a tub of B&M last night.
Vetiver, Heather, and Clary Sage.
This is the first of their soaps that I have tried.

When I first tried b&m I was impressed with the soap.
Lavanille is super duper nice. The scent is something you have to get used to. When I first opened the tub and smelled it, it wasn't my favourite but when I did my first shave and lathered...THE SMELL BLOOMED. It was great.
Will should be making another batch of it. Check back in a few days? I think he said he will keep making them if the demand is high.
Cheshire is fantastic, im also a fan of Lavanille
Last batch of Petrichor released today ... I'm tempted, but haven't tried a vegan soap before
Latest batch or it will be the last batch?
He said on Facebook, "last batch."
Ah. I wasn't even aware he had a Facebook page. Time to follow..
