This soap review must start off with the awesome factoid... natural and organic! Yeah!

The first bar I tried was the slate colored one, Blackberry Cybilla. It's scent is sophisticated but lacking on the berry front. As you can sort of tell from that photo, it is a great gray slate color which would match most bathroom decor and or kitchen areas. The lather is also commendable. In both hot and cold water, the lather is quick, foamy, and full. It provides nice coverage also. Afterwards it has that dry sticky clean feeling. Its not bad. Your skin does feel cleansed but a bit stiff. It goes away within 30 seconds or so, and then you skin feels soft and moist.You skin, afterwards boasts a mildly subdue fresh scent. The blackberry is still not overpowering, really it is barely there.

The next bar was CocoMango. This is a fun mango colored bar, with a nice mild mango scent before washing. It has the same nice lather as the Blackberry Cybilla. It also gives that same sticky clean feeling. However when you use it, the lather is very coco-ish. Your skin smells like a lighty naturally fruit. It has hints of mango, but there is an undertone of something citrusy that blends in nicely.

Overall, these sample bars are splendid. I wish I had more of them! They are .5 oz which is really a great size for a quest bathroom, or for traveling with. I wish the scents were a bit stronger thought. Yet another positive is the fact you can customize you bars scent and color. Neato!
