Anyone who’s been there will tell you that, in New England, Autumn is the best time of year. The trees turn vivid colors, the weather becomes perfectly brisk, and the apple and corn crops are harvested and made into all kinds of wonderful foods to enjoy. The scent of woodsmoke fills the air and fallen leaves litter the ground, crunching pleasantly underfoot wherever you go. It’s a wonderful time, and at the center of it all is the cider mill.

Cider mills are incredible places. The smell of apples suffuses the walls and a wood fire usually burns in the corner. Trays and trays of apple cider donuts fill the tables and counters next to carafes of hot cider and coffee. The buildings smell wonderful and we wanted to capture that smell in soap form. After long experimentation, we blended the scents of apples, newly fallen leaves, woodsmoke, benzoin, and the faintest touch of cinnamon to create a slightly smokey, faintly spicy, wonderful scent perfect for the crisp, clear days of Autumn.

One of my favorites

I was a little worried about getting an "apple" scent. I'm not a fan of fruity or overly sweet scents, so based on the description of Nocturne, I was prepared to give it a pass. But my loving wife decided to purchase a little Autumn care-package for me, and I was so surprised by this one.

There is a surprising amount of of smoke up front, a hint of burning leaves with apple bringing up the rear. The end result is something earthy, and undeniably autumnal (though I can easily see this being worn through the winter). It isn't the most complex scent, but that's also surprisingly welcome here. There are a few key notes, and it doesn't overstay its welcome, asking you to smell it again. And again.

If you were worried about a "fruity" scent, put those fears aside. This is a smokey, earthy, masculine scent that happens to finish off with a hint of fresh cider. I highly recommend it.

Disappointed

I am a huge fan of B&M products and using them for many years. Unfortunately I am disappointed with this, as well as Leviathan, shaving soap and balms. Both a dominated by smoke smells and have little character besides that. Basically you smell like you were standing over a camp fire. Due to the cost I feel obligated to use them, but unfortunately I am not getting the same satisfaction I did from other products.
