Last December while trying to find manly stocking stuffers for my husband, I happened upon an article that recommended EastWest Bottlers MOONSHINE Soap. It seemed so cool and masculine and was said to have a woodsy, whiskey-inspired scent. So I ordered some. And when I opened the box I felt like I was getting slapped in the face by the overwhelming scent of patchouli. I’ve never been a fan of that particular aroma, but this all natural bar soap is made with a blend of natural oils to nourish skin, Dead Sea salt to exfoliate and comes in super cool packaging! Plus, Christmas was coming; I wrapped it up and waited for my husband to make the call after he opened it.

I can’t tell if he actually liked the way it smelled when he first opened it or if he was just trying to humor me, but he put it in the shower and gave it a try. The first time he used it, I noticed instantly. Not because I could smell patchouli; I couldn’t. What I could smell was the sexiest, most intoxicatingly manly scent my nose has ever had the pleasure of smelling. I’m serious! It’s like Spanish Fly for my nostrils. Better still, the soap truly is nourishing, leaving his skin clean and smooth. Also, did I mention that it smells amazing?
