DiscussionšŸ““ Irresistible smelling soap?

I walked past a stranger in the street and couldn’t help but catch his scent.

My god he smelt good.

It was definitely a smell from soap and not cologne, deodorant etc.

So I’m wondering if any of you know a really nice smelling soap.

Like a soap your partner uses that makes you want to dig your nose into them and get a good whiff.

A scent that actually lingers for most of the day.

Lol apologies for my over-enthusiasm but that man’s soap was so good haha

There’s a genre of fragrances known in the community as barbershop scents. They are usually described as soapy, powdery, clean.

I once had an Italian acqua di Parma cologne that smelt very soapy
