I know this doesn't help as I don't have either of the scents you mentioned.
But, to me, the 70th Aniversary soap has a light and fresh scent.
Definately not woody and doesn't smell of cologne.

Out of those two, I would definitely say Dolomiti but you might want to look into Stella Alpina too.
Dolomiti by a wide margin.
Manna is beautiful but a very cologne-type.

Curious - Is the Dolomiti available only as a 4.0 or is there a newer beta version 4.2-4.3?
I just received my Dolomiti and had a first shave. My first reaction is that this is quite an enigmatic scent - it makes you think. It's quite subtle - not a strong scent, but it's there and there is a faint but pleasing linger. It's kind of floral but not floral as you'd expect - there's an undertow of something else entirely. So definitely complex, and even as if some of the elements are fighting with each other without totally resolving. This is a soap I don't understand, and I look forward to more shaves to think about it some more. Performance is outstanding, and post shave feel is lovely, as expected
Very nicely said!
I couldn't agree more.
Dolomiti is definitely a soap I could use for the rest of my life and be happy!!
I think that SV stopped at Beta 4.0 with Dolomiti because they were satisfied with the improvements to that point. It very well may be the perfect soap.
Grazie.
For me it’s Felce Aromatica & Mirto di Sardegna and Mirto would be the last to go. The funny thing is, when my order arrived with all of them, Mirto was my least favorite.
Stella Alpina, Dolomiti, 70th, Manna di Sicilia & Tundra Artica are all really nice too. I just didn’t think I’d like them enough to finish a full puck. Opuntia was the only one I tried and didn’t like at all. Haven’t tried Cosmos or the Asylum offerings.
Slightly off topic of your question, but...
I've tried Dolomiti and Manna and 70th and like Cosmo the best

Let us know when you get it and what you think!
Tried it this morning with my Muhle 33K brush. Lathers like a dream and the scent is intoxicating. Loaded for about a 20 count then face lathered.

Stella and Felce for me.
I have the black colored puck which has slightly more of that fresh mineral smell behind the scent notes. It's heaven!!
