After yesterday today is Haven! Amazing soap! Amazing base! Amazing scent!!! I love it! I still hold on to my last year's statement that Will force little Angeles to shit in jars and label it for Maggard to put blame on them so when the Judgment day come his hand to be clean. About today challenge...... Hahahaha guys .... for us in Bulgaria every order from USA or Canada is adventure, risk, gambling and a lot of efforts and not on last place is pricy! It's not Maggard or other stores or artisans fault. They are great! Always ready to help and give us support! We have expensive shipping and taxes that make price of soap triple. And this is easy part. Aftershaves is pain in the ass. They just don't ship them. The shipping companies refuse to deliver alcohol and we can order only non alcohol aftershaves. So I have this aftershave waiting months some of my friends in USA to come back and bring it with him. There is companies that charge big percent to deliver. So if soap and aftershave is about 50$ they come to us about 90-100$ (average salary is about 900$). And this is the reason not so many people in our country to use north American artisan soaps. Only big fans and I am proud to say that most of them are in our with u/MrTangerinesky shave club. And on top of that your package can be lost or broken and you start acting like Sherlock Holmes searching on long long chain when, where and what is happened. My first attempt to have Angelique aftershave was unfortunate. My friends was going to vacation in Las Vegas and they agreed to help me to take two bottles. But package was lost and I have to make investigation from 10 000 kilometers distance by phone. Maggard say we have information that package is delivered. My friends say we check every day and noting arrived and they come back in Bulgaria. Maggards say no problem return it and we will return your money. After two weeks looking ( phonnig) I find it in hotel lost items. Somebody from hotel miss to deliver in right time the package and my friends left the hotel they put them in lost items. I find some nice employee to return it back. So Horatio from CSI Miami can kiss my ass! Thank God second attempt was successful! That's why I order two Angelique bottles.
