Sample part 1 of 3. Wow, I really like this base. The scent is powdery barber shop goodness with a hint of Tabac?

Have a great day!

Hey, another Chiseled Face base fan! Most people don't have much good to say about it. Is yours the normal base or the silk tallow base?

I have samples from Maggard's. They didn't specify on the order page, but the sticker matches the non-silk tallow soap, so I think that's what I have.
