I haven’t used this soap yet, but had to “sample whiff” each of them right out of the box. So far, I’m super impressed with the unique scent profile of each one. Different and interesting! I started with Fresh Coast, which lathers well, smells like a trip to Big Sur, and leaves me feeling clean. I did not find the grit too harsh, either.
