This tub is on the kill block. I used it for AA and there are only a few shaves left in it. I need to make room for the tub of Sea Ice Lime that I got in the https://spearheadshaving.com giveaway.

What's notable to me about Port-Au-Prince is that I started the month thinking it was a meh scent, and ended the month loving it. I never got sick of it, and even a month removed from the AA shenanigans I still find it a wonderful smell. I can see myself replacing it with some other vetiver scent eventually -- maybe from Mike's Natural?
