What's this soap like? I mean, black pepper - does it really smell like it?

To me is aspicy orange. I truly love it.

Yes, black pepper essential oil smells like black pepper, but added into a mix of other essential oils it adds spice (like what @sealer said), warmth and depth.

Soap: Barrister & Mann - Petrichor
Bowl/Scuttle: Granite
Brush: Semogue 730 HD Silvertip Badger
Razor: Muhle R41 Rose Gold
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium (4)
Post: Alum block
A/S: Home made Witch Hazel and glycerine with Scotch Pine essential oils
EDT: Demeter Petrichor

Really nice shave tonight with the new soap that arrived today “petrichor’ perfect lather and cushion that lasted over 3 passes. The scent, think damp earth with fresh rain and you have it. Shave 4 on this blade but by the time I was done with 3 passes and some touch ups it was ready for the blade bank. BBS and very little irritation, this razor just gets better I am starting to see how good it is.
Happy shaves

I have one from West Coast Shaving. At $15 (US), it's a great looking 26mm synth.
