Sample September is Soap Commander September since I have a lot of Soap Commander samples.

As usual I had trouble with the base and felt the scent was nice but not remarkable.

I got my wife a few Soap Commander bar soaps a little while ago, and I liked the scent of all of them.

Yeah, they have a nice scent. Nothing to write home about but it’s quite pleasant. Performance is another matter.
