Me too. I love the smell.Interesting, I do like the artwork.
Would you say it’s a gourmand, sweet?
It isn't a sweet smell at first. Very tobacco then over time becomes very chocolate that is kinda sweet
PAA and many other artisans make "seasonal" scents that are a limited time. Perhaps this is one such soap?
Yeah it's Christmas. They must have sold out. I sure like it though
That’s Cosmic Christmas Cookies. It a Christmas seasonal they usually sell around Black Friday until the beginning of the new year. I haven’t seen it yet this year but it may still be coming. It has a great sugar cookie smell to my wife and I, not too sweet but there is sweetness and is a gourmandish scent to me.
When she says tobacco, would you say it's like pipe tobacco? Like it's just there to add a hint of sweetness, or the whole pouch? I can't image it's tobacco flower, most people don't know that scent.
That's how I would describe it at first. Like a sweet tobacco that as it dissipates turns to a chocolate smell. Mmmmm it smells like the good kind of tobacco flavored vape
Looks like a Red Tip.
Yes and the end unscrews. PAA makes multiple colour replacements Red being one of them.
This morning's shave was awesome!

PAA Advent Calendar shave #1
-Rex Ambassador Deluxe
-PAA Strangelet blade (1st)
-PAA Phantom Aerolite
-Capt Choice Copper Bowl
-PAA Ice Cube
-PAA Old Salty set
Very nice scent. This was a great scent to start the Calendar with
I have a feeling I'm going to want Douglas to bring all of these back.
The first go with the PAA Blades (included with the advent calendar as a surprise!!) was also fantastic! Super smooth in the rex ambassador (setting 6, 4, 4), left me BBS with no nics or alum feedback whatsoever. So smooth and comfy.View attachment 1378064View attachment 1378065

More PAA Meta-4 shaves and a small early comparison with the Razorock BBS OC
Sunday BBS OC Shave
Todays Shave!
Confirmed that the PAA Meta-4 is more comfortable, smoother and more efficient with a second shave that had absolutely no Alum feedback and you can't even feel the shave unless going against the grain! Shaving angle can still be used fairly steep (The BBS OC wins this however)
So far in my usage the Meta-4 is smoother, more comfortable in comparison with other Razorock razors like the gamechanger .68 series both solid bar p and Jaws. The Efficiency is around the .68 Jaws and 84p it is however not Lupo 72 close.

I've just started to use the PAA soaps.
Overall, really impressed so far.
Will need a few more shaves to have a more defined opinion.
Anyone have recommendations on their favorite scents?
Had a few samples in my recent order, but having a tough time deciding which way to go.
Thinking Bay Rum - but not sure if I like the Atomic or Classic better...
Also considering one of the sandalwood soaps - several are very nice.

PAA soaps and aftershaves are some of my favorites. Fantastic performing products. My go to's at the moment are Cold Spices, Atomic Age Bay Rum, and Diver Down. I also have Awesome Sauce and Droid Black.
I have a sample of the Diver Down that I like.
Certainly considering the Atomic Bay Rum, as well as the other 2 bay options.
I am really a sucker for sandalwood scents too..... decisions decisions!
After all these years, Aloha Smackdown is still my overwhelming favority. Its in my two 3 soaps of all time.
I’m a big fan of PAA soaps, CK6 especially. Favorite scents are Dapper Doc and Sangre de Drago. And Clown Fruit and Atomic Pumpkin.
I would choose the Atomic Age Bay Rum over the Classico.
