Hello all you lathery brush jockeys!

I have a couple of VERY EXCITING updates!

• The soap jars have now been received (a week later than expected -.-) and soap and aftershave production have begun. Anyone who ordered ONLY an aftershave has already had their order shipped. Hope you like it! The rest should go out in the next five days or so.

Also, it's time to announce the prize! Please allow me a personal w00t.

w00t.

• Okay, here's the deal. As may have become obvious, we're in the process of shifting our focus more to fine fragrance, so the prize for this year's Puzzle/Adumbrare/Shavey-Guessing-Game-Thing is a 50 ml bottle of each of the three planned perfume releases this year: Romance in Middlesex County, Just Right for a Tuesday, and Fallen Skies. You will also receive two coffee mugs made for us by Rebecca Graves-Prowse, done in the style of the Fougère Gothique coffrets (note: if the idea of having coffee mugs with Satan on them offends the winner [and only the winner], just shoot me a PM and we'll send them to the runner-up).

Reminder: You must guess as many of the notes correctly as possible. If multiple people guess them all right, or tie with the most correct notes, then /u/mradamlerner and I will have to figure something out. We'll cross that bridge if we come to it, unless he has input otherwise. There are six notes in total.

Super excited to get this stuff out the door, and a HUGE thank you to everyone for your patience!
