Natural Soap - The Shamrock Saint
This is a natural soap for men by The Black Stuff.
This limited edition, and its companion soap "What's Yer Poison" tell the true story of St. Patrick.
Both start at the same place and are rooted in Vetiver Essential Oil, which has a thick manly scent with hints of earthiness, smokiness, and uncut grass. I imagine Ireland 2500 years ago could have smelled like this. But they end in completely opposite directions. One super smooth, silky, rich; refined; the other: rough, strong, and hard working.
Related, and similar, but also polar opposites.
One symbolizes the Catholics of Ireland, the other the Pagans. For that is the true story of St. Patrick, the shepherd (goat's milk) turned saint (silk). The snakes (charcoal) he drove from the land, in reality, were the native nature-based pagans whom he converted.

Smells Like:
The lemon, lime, and related essential oils (lemongrass, bergamot) sit perfectly over a deeper, more masculine vetiver scent. A long inhale reveals the slight acridity and smokiness of the vetiver, which will linger longer than the citrusy top notes. Together they blend into an intriguing lemon and lime fragrance that makes your nostrils tingle and leaves you wanting to inhale the aroma a second time.
Scent: Vetiver, Lemongrass, and Bergamot
