    Thanks for the nice write-up, that was a good read!

    I think the banana must have evaporated through the paper. My 3 year old soap in a closed aluminium tub is a banana bomb.

    If you’re curious about AYLM, know that the newer soaps have switched over to a hard, triple milled soap base, and there have already been at least two iterations of the hard soap.

    I like both the soft and hard soaps I’ve tried from AYLM, but I do think that the newest hard base with the hemp oil is a step better than the others.

      I didn’t get the coconut, the banana was quite overwelming (if I had covered my face in ripe banana paste, it wouldn’t have been very different) 🍌🍌💣💣

      Thanks, really nice to read that you enjoy my writeup!

      Yeah, I think that’s the unfortunate case here. It was also sent to me in a period where the heat was unbearable, so I guess that contributed to the loss of the fragrance. The coconut scent is still very noticeable thanks to the coconut oil.

      Honestly, triple milled hard soaps are even more intriguing compared to the usual soft soap bases we know. I’ll see what I am able to find. Thanks for nominating this soap and subsequently getting us all to experience it! 👍🏻
