QED smells, can anyone be more descriptive

[Sam]

I need a new shave soap to refill my shave sticks. I read up on the new tobacco offering and I loved the review of the member who just got it. I love Charles' limes, and the wild orange is nice in summer for a change of pace, but the tangerine spearmint is not for me.

So, any better descriptions of what the better ones smell like?

I have the QED Tobacco and Special 218 in route. I should have them in by late in the week and will give an update then with my thoughts on the scents. Charles' new website has a section with scent descriptions that might help as well.

I have the Pine-Cedarwood and the Sandalwood. The former smells just like a fresh cut pine log full of sap. It's a very sharp "piney" scent and, like most of the QED soaps, it has hours of staying power. The Sandalwood is a one note, very dry and powerful scent. Nothing sweet or clove-like. I like both, but don't use them often.

Good luck with your choices.
