[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]As a long-time Dr. Squatch fan and collector, I’ve tried nearly every limited edition, special pack, and standard soap available. From the classic favorites to rare limited editions, I’ve got a lot to say about each one. Below is my ultimate guide, breaking down every soap I’ve tried, plus some thoughts on accessories and scents. If you’re a Squatch enthusiast or just curious, this is your one-stop guide.

Out of the close to 100 scents, I’ve only tried 44 of the briccs.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”Limited Edition Bundles” style=”shadow” border_width=”3″ css=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]

Grit: Medium
Scent: Dark, rugged leather.
Review: This was an amazing scent, rugged with a medium grit that really exfoliated. It left my skin smooth, and the scent lingered for hours. I wish it were a permanent addition!
Rating: ★★★★☆[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”2336″ css=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”3/4″][vc_column_text css=””]The Riddle Enigma (Mystery Scent – Green Apple)
Grit: None
Scent: Subtle green apple, not overpowering.

Grit: Light
Scent: Nice but not exceptional; the weakest of a strong pack.

Rating: ★★★☆☆[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]

Grit: None
Scent: Floral blend of red wine, ylang-ylang, and rose.
