    Arkadia notes: Orange, Vetiver, Black Pepper, Grapefruit, Cedar, Patchouli, Vanilla, Geranium

    Orange and Grapefruit are undeniably “citrus”, but I’ll only count one of them to be conservative. Black pepper is peppercorn, just ground up. There’s no difference other than one is a dried fruit ball, and the other is a dried fruit ball, ground up. You could even pick up a container of Peppercorn at the store and exclaim to your shopping parter “look at this container of black pepper!”.

    Such a good lather. It was from a sample so I smeared a bunch into a bowl and loaded almost all of it, which was a lot. As we all know, more soap = better lather.
