was cruising through my pseudo DrP shelf and found this: https://ibb.co/bWbmz2K.

Any idea what it is?

thanks

It almost looks like it says "I" and "K" on either side of the logo. I've never seen that exact logo on an Institut Karite soap, but it's the right bright white hue. What's the scent like?

I think the putative I and K are mirror images of each other, and thus more like a ribband behind the logo. IK soaps have this:



If you turn the image you posted, Clive, 90º clockwise, it almost looks like someone getting a hug. I don't recognise it.

Chris, right, I've never seen that logo on an IK soap. Just the only thing I could sorta tell from squinting. I think you're right about rotating the image. I don't remember seeing it on any other soaps.

It's Gold Dachs. Wonderful lathering soap and a nice scent to it.

Well done, Chris!

Looks like the image is of a badger. So much for my pareidolia!

thanks a million for your help...the mystery deepens: I have never knowingly bought this soap

Clive, I seem to remember some speculation on one of the boards that Golddachs made or makes Fendrihan's own-brand hard soaps. I don't know if that's accurate, but the soaps do state that they are made in Germany. Did you ever pick up any Fendrihan's branded soap?

It's surprising what you can buy during an alcoholic blackout!
