So I purchased a tub of B&M Le Grand Chypre. Don't ask me why I bought a full tub without trying out a sample first. This is my first experience with B&M's products, and I am very impressed with the Excelsior base. It has jumped up to take its place with my other top performing soaps.
The only problem is I do not like this scent and it is Very strong. Normally if I don't enjoy a scent, it's not a deal breaker. I only shave my neck and head, so it's never really right under my nose. But the scent of this soap is strong enough that it gave me a headache while shaving.
Would it be worthwhile leaving the cover off the top of the tub for a while to see if the scent dissipates enough for it to be bearable? Would this be kind of a waste? I know some people do dig this scent.
