What are everyone's thoughts on these soaps. Their packaging and other marketing is quite appealing to me. Many of their soaps are sold out which is a good sign but also a bummer/bad sign in some ways.
I am interested in a broad discussion of their scents and performance in any range of detail. Also interested in guidance of release times, stock refreshes, and stores that carry their products.

The soap holds plenty of water and is slick n thick. It can hold its own against all of the soaps I use (Eufros, Nuavia, Mike's, B&M). I really love Spitfire and Imperial Rum reminds me of Kramperts and the sample I have of Pall Mall is nice too. Star Noir, Albion and Sanskirt were not my cup of tea

I ordered Spitfire and Imperial Rum. I was really interested in the Spitfire because the scent description sounded like something I would like. It did not disappoint. I wasn’t getting my hopes up on the Imperial Rum, as I have tried several other Bay Rum scented soaps, and really disliked everything I was trying (notably B&M). I loved Imperial Rum as soon as I opened it and smelled it. The only other Bay Rum scented soap I found that I like is CRSW.
Performance is nice and is very forgiving of adding water (it’s hard to add to much water).
I ended up ordering Oberon and Obsidian and they are in the mail.

One of the best performing soaps for me. I like the scents but they are not strong and tend to fade, so some of the scented P&B soaps I purchased are practically unscented now. I tend not to use them as much as I would if they held their scent better. Baskerville, for instance, was one of my favorite overall soaps when I first got it -- the scent was mild but definitely present and it was right up my alley. Now, I don't smell it at all.

Really looking forward to your thoughts! The name Albion really interests me. I am sure the name is rooted in the real life location, but it strongly reminds me of the area in Fable 1 on Xbox, which brings back very strong positive memories. (Just an aside)
