Week in Review #5


This week we started listing the first of our cigar box gift boxes. As it turns out, cigar boxes are a great size for  gift boxes, and I think they look pretty classy. We started with a set of Classic Gentleman items, but more sets in other scents will be on their way soon.

I've gotten some great feedback on the foot & body scrub, so those should be made up and listed for sale soon. This scrub is excellent for exfoliation, skin softening, and muscle relaxing - a great way to rid your skin of the last of the dry winter flakes. (Exfoliation? For men? Yes, for gentlemen.)

Blog posts will now be coming out three times a week, sometimes about the shop but mostly about a variety of other gentlemanly topics or websites of note. I'm also excited to announce that our polymath friend Tom has agreed to start some guest blogging spots. Look for his posts starting sometime in the next month. Besides being an all-round cool and nice guy, Tom always has a project (or two or three or four) going on. He has great ideas for some how-to posts which I'm excited to read.

We've been back at soaping some new scents. The next of our Yoga Scents line, a bergamot, grapefruit, and lime blend, is about halfway through curing. A whole new scent, the Fatherly Gentleman, is quickly becoming a new favorite around here and will be available as a limited-edition scent in May, just in time for those looking to pick up a Father's Day gift.
