I enjoyed trying this soap. The base was really easy and good. We used to have stores called The Christmas Tree Shop (I think they closed all of their stores within the past couple of years) and this acent reminded me of those stores. Definitely some pine, maybe some cinnamon (narrator note - there is no cinnamon scent note). Festive without being festive is how I'd describe it, if that makes sense. Quite nice!

Ukraine rules, Russia stinks.
