What's your favourite Nanny' soap scent

[fly3k]

Apologies if this has been done before but I'm thinking of getting a nannys signature soap and don't know what scent to get. I want to avoid any with vanilla in them as it seems to irritate my skin.

So what's your favourite scent, does it smell of anything I might know and why do you like it.

I wasn't keen on the vetiver scent I had a sample of but considering citrus zinger, lemon and basil, down home summer and the Morrocan sands.

Moroccan Sands is a nice spicy scent.

My fave was Ice and a Slice for a nice methol lemon scent

Down Home Summer is my favourite of the few I've tried. Can't really describe it but is different from other flowery scents.
Moroccan sands is on my to-do list.

Moroccan Sands is my favourite with Warm Spice in second place. Arabian Nights is probably in next place.

I've also created my own: Patchouli and Lime from two 25g samples plus some left-over lanolin trial soap, that's very nice too but I used a 50/50 mix and the lime predominates a bit too much. However, the two scent work together very well and the result is far nicer than the two on their own and it ranks with Warm Spice for my nose.

I have 3 but they are all different types, in order of preference they are:-
1 Ice and Slice (Signature)
2 Eucalyptus and Teat Tree (Hard Soap)
3 Warm Spice (Original)
All great performers

What level of menthol is the ice and a slice? Proraso or higher?

In my opinion the menthol level is not as high as Proraso but the addition of lemon gives it a another dimension, the scent is far more subtle.
In addition the menthol / cooling effect builds and increases after your first pass.
I absolutely love this soap.

That's what I wanted to hear. Not a big fan of a huge menthol hit. A slow developing one sounds about right for me.

Another Ice & Slice fan here.

I bought NSS citrus Zinger as one of my soaps when I started out around a month ago. I bought it because I like citrus scents and also I thought the red tin looked cool! I love it. The scent is amazing and the performance I get from the soap is brilliant.

Ice & Slice (OO, for me).

Lovely clean lemon scent and cooling that increases with every completion of the pass. Won't make your eyes water but will certainly freshen and cool the skin.

I have 2 that I really like:
Ice & a slice, menthol & citrus is a great match.
Yushu, flavoured with juniper - G&T unleashed.

Yushu is a nice subtle scent as is White Grape.

Scents aside, the lather is a great performer and has a great post shave quality.

Always been partial to her Eucalyptus and Tea Tree myself. That smell instantly makes me relax like just having had a massage in a spa.

Ice and a slice, signature for the smell, original for the shave.
