Blue Squirrel this morn, light,fresh, citrus.
Grapefruit? Touch of lime?
Invigorating.

Sorry, I can't help thinking of Blue Stratos, but replacing it with Blue Squirrel. Would make a great comedy advert :lmao:

Actually that's quite a comedy advert in its own right

Green Squirrel this morning, first hit, Tea Tree?
Maybe some Citronella? Lemongrass?
Fragrance by far the quickest to lose its presence.
Fresh ? Clean ? yes.
But least favorite thus far ...

Only one out of three on the smells :). Good to hear about the "don't like" as that's a big help knowing which to carry forward.

Remember, it's not just about the scent, it's about 'The Beard' wether it nourishes and adds health.
If it's a good oil, you should be able to wake up without 'bed beard' . Alas shortish beards won't be able to help with that result ......

Sounds good so far though .

Just so Chiseller. I'm only using a simple carrier at this stage. When we sort the preferred scents, I plan to test several conditioning blends.

The 'conditioning' comment from Chiseller is interesting, I found Green Squirrel a little astringent.
For me, a dry beard is an uncomfortable/ itchy beard, conditioning qualities are right up there with scent.
Tan Squirrel today, will check in later.
Have a good morning fellas!

Tan is fantastic, right up there with Black!
Really not sure what is in there but I am getting Leather, wood smoke, pine or birch tar.
Again it did not hang around as long as I would have liked but very evocative, brought back arctic camp fire sessions in Sweden and Norway
and sitting around the forge with Dave Budd after a day at the Wilderness Gathering.

Love it!.

Interesting, I hope Mark and Ian like that one. Could it stand a little more of the smalls to last longer?

I'm really looking forward to your thoughts on Tan. And Rachel's too. I worry that it may not be liked by women, it is, I think, a very manly smell.
