July 12, 2023 – LG23 Day 12: It’s So Fluffy I’m Gonna Die

  • Brush: West Coast Shaving Clear Smoke Burlwood 26 mm #COMPOSITE
  • Razor: Razorock German 37 Slant
  • Blade: Astra SP (Green) (3)
  • Lather: Taconic Shave – Urban Woods
  • Post Shave: Pinaud – Whiskey Woods
  • Fragrance: Dior – Dior Homme – EdT

If this were any other day…

The Taconic Shave Urban Woods features coconut oil as its first ingredient, so I was very hopeful going in to today’s shave. I picked up the German 37 Slant for kicks. I always get a good shave with it, provided I have a good lather. So let’s throw caution to the wind, eh?

Daily Challenge
I now usually go back and forth between bowl and face, à la GUTL so I feel like I need to shake things up a bit. Here’s where I’m jealous of the real wetshaving wives. Had I one, I would wetshaving wife lather. But I got none, so I have to use my hand. Just go watch.

Tying it all together
Urban Woods is very woody, which is quite nice. Something else that’s urban these days are distilleries, so Whiskey Woods is a nice tie-in and very simple. Dior Homme touts Atlas Cedar “chiseled in-house at Dior” as the key heart note. This is definitely a frag I could wear frequently.
