There’s a few scents in my collection that I think I wouldn’t get tired of using. Sonder is on the list of course, and I’d add Barrbarr, Alive, Shire 2, Rawr, 42, Cheshire, Y/R/P, Thè Noir et Vanille, Roam 2, Black Watch, 3 Scots, Bell Ringer, Prom King, and Roman Spice. A lucky 15 listed there, and while there are other scents I really like too. Oh wait Baker Street plus Lavender & Bergamot. Well, I guess there are more, but that’s a great line up for me. I think if I include samples, I can go at least 5 months without repeating a soap. That is both the hardest and best parts of Austere August. Difficulty, no variety for a whole month when there is an abundance of choice, but great that I don’t have to choose too. I only have 1 shave planned for September so far, so I will have to deal with the hassle of choosing each day.
Shave was again very good today. Lathering is getting easier now, but it still takes longer for me to dial it in compared to bowl lathering. Not much irritation, and have an insurmountable lead with 18 bloodless shaves to 4 with blood. Unless I miss counted. It might be 17-5.
Forgot to take a picture again. Not much difference from yesterday’s shot here.
