We finally have released our new "Mentolo" soap. This is strictly for menthol lovers, as it contains max menthol and other selected, cooling balms. All the ingredients are natural and only essential oils are used. This is a superb lathering soap, with an ultra cool after-shave sensation.
One of our Beta testers came back with the following comment:
Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh!
The Mentolo is available for immediate shipment. $15 buys a 140 gram tub of this, the coolest of soaps! We'll add it to our catalog today. Email me if interested.
Cheers and happy weekend!
SOme Beta testing was done on the prototype of the "Mentolo", which was called, for lack of a better name, Extra Mentholated Alpino.

Giovanni, if I understand you corrrectly, the Mentolo is not the same as the Alpino extra menthol. It is a different formulation with even more menthol than the Alpino extra menthol. You know I love menthol, and you know how impressed I am with the Alpino extra, so this stuff I have to try!! More menthol?!? Damn, this is great news!!

It's very close to the Alpino Extra Menthol prototype. The formula has been tweaked to provide an even greater cooling sensation.
It does have a very small percentage of additional menthol and the other essential oils have an improved synergistic blend. Also, it is colorless.
This is the final formula and I am very enthusiastic about it!

My shave today was the Feather Portable with Tryphon Medici and a Dorco blade courtesy Giovanni. A great shave! (I followed with Caswell Massey No. 6 cologne, which was a perfect complement to the citrus Medici.)
Tomorrow I'll be back to my Merkur HD -- this time with Tryphon Alpino. I'll be buying the Mentolo very shortly.

Doug, I am glad you enjoyed the Medici. Whenever people ask about citrus soaps, the Medici rarely gets a mention: I guess I should have named it the Tryphon "Citrus", since the name "Medici" does not readily conjure images of orange and lemon groves... Still, it is one of my very favorite soaps: I am really glad you enjoyed it unique scent!
Grazie!
Giovanni

I like the fact that your names are not conventional -- it's fitting to your line. Just gotta give time for people to re-adjust their "norms."

We also added to our catalog two other new soaps: Tuscan Pinewood, with a subtle pine scent and floral tones and Florida Water. The Florida Water uses the original 1808 formula. If you like Florida Water cologne, you'll love our new soap!
We also added a couple of new accessories to our online catalog at Barbieria Italiana.
