A Fine Chypre

  • Brush: Zenith B8 (XL aluminium handle, 28 mm × 57 mm boar)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 14 (8/8″, extra hollow ground, stainless steel) #Str8Snob
  • Lather: Fine – Platinum
  • Post Shave: Declaration Grooming – Tribute
  • Fragrance: Stirling Soap Co. – Executive Man

Half-way point! Crazy how fast this whooshes by. I'm celebrating this milestone by using my Frio 14.

All chypres in my den, Executive Man, Sellout, Platinum, are dupes of Aventus. I really should try Le Grand et le Petit Chypre someday, and explore this family a bit.

The relevant post and frag theme today is fruity, specifically pineapple-forward fruity with patchouli. On a side note, Tribute is a good illustration for how poor my nose is. It smells practically like yet another Aventus dupe to me 😅

Wettubing challenge is a bit tricky. I value privacy on the internet, sticking my face in a camera is where I draw the line, and recording a face shaving video without showing a face misses the point (i.e., is truly impossible in the context of the challenge). My recent favourite WetTubing star is u/MrTangerineSky for this performance, but the all time award goes to u/CosmoBarber for whatever this is. No way u/VisceralWatch could match that.
