Has there been any changes to the Liquid Java Lather Soap or the Java Bars? I have used the Java Bars for a while now, and as we all know, they are incredible.
Was going to try the Liquid Java Lather Soap, but was first reading the recent customer reviews (Invalid Link Removed) and noticed someone indicated :sad3::
"I have gotten two bottles of this soap in the past, and although Dsade denies any 'major' change in the formula, it's not the same as it was in the past (for worse). Older versions were darker in color (this is a light brown), and the other accenting smells were more prevalent.
With this last bottle, the smell is a chemically-coffee like scent, without the other flavor notes. It's like when you walk out of Dunkin Donuts after you've been inside for 5 minutes, you have that unpleasant coffee smell lingering on you. I'm sure some people will not mind this, but I also take issue that this does not lather at all. The exfoliating pieces that were in the other versions of this soap are just not present as much as the others, to the point that I'm surprised if I see any when I pour some soap onto my hand.
I don't mean to make a big deal out of soap, but for 8oz. running $10 plus shipping, when you step back, this is pretty expensive compared to other body washes. I had no issue paying this with the older versions because the smell was so good (even bought their reed diffusers with this scent), but not only is the smell different, it's almost impossible to use because it doesn't lather. I'll probably use the rest of this mostly full bottle up if I run out of my current soap and forget to buy more."
