It might smell like cilantro and suffering, but somehow War also manages to be considered a chypre. I have no idea what a chypre really is, but I will say that War also smells (marginally) better than most sheep I've met, so it's got that going for it.
My favorite wettuber is r/Wetshaving's sweetheart, Michael Freedberg. I don't watch many wetshaving videos, but when I do, most are from Freeberg. His calm, kind presentation style just makes for pleasant and easy to watch videos.
War (Hardly Good for Shaving) to the tune of War by Edwin Starr
Lyrics:
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for?
Hardly good for shavin’, uhh
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for?
Hardly good for shavin’
Say it again, y'all
War, huh (good God)
What is it good for?
Hardly good for shavin’, listen to me, oh
War, I despise
'Cause it means destruction of innocent noses
War means tears in thousands of shaver's eyes
When their sons go to lather
And lose their hairs
I said, war, huh (good God, y'all)
What is it good for?
Hardly good for shavin’, say it again
War (whoa), huh (oh Lord)
What is it good for?
Hardly good for shavin’, listen to me
It ain't nothing but a lather-maker
(War) Friend only to The Soapmaker
Oh, war it's an enemy to all shave-kind
The scent of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest
Within the shaving generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to shave? Oh
War, huh (good God y'all)
What is it good for?
Hardly good for shavin’
Say it, say it, say it
War (uh-huh), huh (yeah, huh)
What is it good for?
Hardly good for shavin’, listen to me
