Review: Con*Tact Caffeine - Rarity/Fresh Roses

Two updates in one day? What is this madness?!

Well technically I tested Twilight Sparkle last night so that can be yesterday's update ;).

It's Valentine's Day! At least it was a few hours ago. It was a day of cards, hearts, chocolates, and flowers, especially roses! So what soap should I have used as I made my way through the Mane Six set?

Obviously Rarity's Fresh Roses!

The soap's label has art by Anuvia, who did the art for all of the MLP soaps. The bar itself is white with silver glitter and purple mica on top. It screams out Rarity!

I don't think that I need to go into in depth details to describe the scent of this soap because it's so simplistic. This is rose scented soap and it smells amazing. It's not an artificial or perfumey rose scent but, instead, actually smells like a fresh bouquet of roses. It's not a subtle scent, nor is it super strong. It's at a perfect middle ground and the scent of freshly cut roses lingers on your skin after use. The scent is just as elegant as the character that inspired it. It's fresh, it's pleasant, it's an overall wonderful product.

While I love Con*Tact's soaps that are an exquisite blend of various fragrances, their singule scented soaps (ex: just fresh roses here versus all the wonderful scents in Twilight Sparkle) are amazing as well. Don't be put off by its simplicity. If you're looking for a rose scented soap, Con*Tact really nailed it here.
