    • Brush: AP Shave Co - Black Matte Alumihandle Layered Comfort - 25mm Mühle STF
    • Razor: Karve Shaving Co. - Overlander (Matte Black Aluminum)
    • Blade: Personna Med Prep
    • Lather: Noxzema - Protective Shave - Cream
    • Post Shave: Jack Black - Double Duty Face Moisturizer

    First time trying Noxzema for a shave. The scent is nice and reminds me of a face wash of theirs I used in high school. Nothing else is new here. I did grab my AP Shave Co Mühle STF since AP is today's spotlight sponsor.

    • Blade: Personna Med Prep
    • Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Sea Ice Lime - Soap
    • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Z (Cool) - Balm

    A juicy lime accord is at the heart of the fragrance with the froth of waves crashing over the deck providing a salty ocean and cedarwood undertone.  Coriander, pink pepper and a touch of west indies bay provide a spice melange that gives some brawn to a new modern classic.

    Lime, bay, and waves. Smelling like a sailor who just staved off scurvey...

    Petrichor for the theme. C Bub's new (forthcoming) Top of the World for my frag. BaM's Petrichor uses geosmin for the after the rain effect and Top of the World fetaures geosmin to provide some earthiness fougère that's meant to capture the scent of being above the tree line.

    • Lather: Martin de Candre - Original - Soap
    • Post Shave: Eufros - Vetiver de Haití - Balm
    • Fragrance: Ach Brito - Lavande - Eau de Cologne

    Brush from Italy, razor from Canada, blade from England, soap from France, balm from Spain, fragrance from Portugal, and I'm from/in the US.

    Edit: I went with MdC Original and AB Lavande because the Lavande cream (which smells like the EdC + menthol) smells a bit like MdC Original, so I felt confident I'd enjoy the two. The Lavande EdC is a darker, woodier lavender so transitioning to it with the Vetiver de Haiti in between worked well.
