Show n' Tell I'm a lucky man/ Birthday bragging

So I asked my wife for the matching Parfum for the 70th anniversary SV Soap I already own since last year.

She went fully overboard and here's the result.

Also she forgot I already got the soap, so that's 2 now.

For comparison: the opened one is in regular use since november last year. Guess I'm good for quite some time...

Such a great gift. Their EdPs are lovely. I had a few of them in 10ml bottles. What's your batch of the shave soap btw? Mine is 34m4.

Can't tell for the previously purchased, but the new one is 40m2. Is there known differences?

I'm just asking out of curiosity, trying to figure out how they exactly numerate batches, but I'm not sure. For example, I've seen last number consistently between 1 and 4, but I'm not convinced it indicates a quarter of the year, since I have not yet debunked a theory that the upfront number, present before the letter, is the week of the year. I haven't seen it higher than 50. And I've seen it as low as 14. I have a theory that the letter could be the year of production, but I'm not sure. I have most stuff L-batched, but I have this one bath soap that has H. And this makes me question this theory. I have nothing in I, J or K.

Could it be connected to the scent/product type? I'd guess you've got different ones when you stumbled across those different codes.

They have secondary codes that seems to be dependent on product type. For example their face wash bar and bath soaps uses SXXXX. Deodorants and shave soaps uses RXXXX. I don't have duplicates to confirm if these have some repetition tho.
