The Shaving Evangelists TSE aka CDB on Youtube commented on this very topic twice in the past 2 years. The 'artisans' responded to his criticism of shooting up prices with justification that they started using higher quality ingredients. For AS I believe the words "high quality essential oils" were used, which Chris ridiculed on several videos as bollocks. He didn't mention Fine in particular, but he did reference prices going up from $16 to $25 for AS as greed business practice.
I love FA soap but won't be buying the AS at the new prices.
TBH it irks that I can't buy soap with a good lavender scent without looking overseas but (that's) a rant for a different thread.
A tariff is levied by the importing country, hence the UK in this case. However, I think that FA simply increased their price for whatever reason. Maybe they just think the British are a smelly lot and can be "squeezed".
Castle Forbes? I know, its a cream...
The Nanny's lavenders are pretty good.I love FA soap but won't be buying the AS at the new prices.

Oo err sailor, haven't seen you around these parts beforeAdmittedly I've never worn the original but whenever I've worn Aventus clones I've received the odd compliment from men but never a single one from women... Panty dropper my arse, boxer dropper more like. I dont wear it anymore

i would 2nd the nanny's recommendation - i've not tried her lavender but the lime and bergamot soaps were excellent. Perhaps @Fox can create a classic line of simple scents - he has the rose nailed already
It's an idea for later, I need to clear my current work load first.
Money talks.
...I know I should just be happy with CF but I would love a soap that even approached that scent.
