Taste the #RAINBOW. Or at least part of it, up to yellow.
Clementine is a lovely bright orange scent, and Stirling's stellar soap gave me quite a nice shave today. The Baili... was OK. It did pretty well with the old blade, but the match isn't the best. The razor is nice and cheap (about $5 or $6 I think, or at least that's how much I got it for a couple years ago), but doesn't give me the nicest shave. A couple years ago u/velocipedic wrote a nice review of it, praising it as an excellent entry point to DE wetshaving due to its price. I agree... but there are much nicer razors.
A different citrus is featured in each scent this morning, although the Clementine and Yuzu aren't too far apart. But the lemon in Sonder is quite a ways down the road.
