There has been a lot of questions and discussion about the scent of Williams Mug Soap. Is it Lemon? Citronella? Or something else?
So I thought I'd take a chance and email Combe Inc. to see if they would tell me what the scent was. I don't remember when I sent the request, but it has been a week or two and I just got a response from them. Here is what they said:
While they didn't give me the exact recipe, they did give me more than any of us knew before. And I was quite surprised at what they did send me. I've never had a particularly sensitive nose for notes, but I can't say that I have ever smelled spices or cedar in Williams. Perhaps, for those who have been asking, this will give you some better clues as to what they put in their soap.
