Gifts of Soap and Question

[Calyx]

I received a couple of soaps today in the mail that were late. I had mentioned how much I liked Razorock Mudder Focker to some family and they ordered a couple of Razorock soaps as gifts.
I got the XX and XXX. I've heard good things about both so I was really surprised when I open the XX and didn't get any scent at all. None. My wife doesn't smell any either. The XXX has a good scent.
I thought maybe once a lather is made the scent will come out so I went to the bathroom and used it to make up a decent lather but still no smell.
My question is: do any other users of the XX soap not smell anything? Could it be too old?

IMO, it’s old and lost its scent. All the ‘X’ series are scent clones of better known fragrances, and some are not long lived.

Thanks for the reply @Steve56. If this is the case maybe they should put expiration dates on the containers. I expect most folks would purchase these just for the clone aspect.
Now I have a jar of soap that's lost its purpose.

Instead of lost its purpose maybe I should say lost its appeal.

I purchase mostly unscented soaps, so once you get over your initial disappointment you may find it a perfectly acceptable inclusion in your rotation - or it will break your heart until the end of time. Could go either way.
