Cerberus was one of the biggest hyped collaborations that has happened in the relatively short time that I’ve been wetshaving. Three of the biggest brands coming together each working on a piece of this project. I love how they split up the different parts of the trifecta so everyone had a part to play. Unfortunately I only have the soap but I get to enjoy House of Mammoths incredible scent in the great Milksteak base from Declaration Grooming! I used Sandalorian which was the pre-cursor to Cerberus and a super short run fragrance. This was the last spray in my decant and I just recently missed a whole bottle of it by about 15 minutes. Thankfully I was able to work out another decant of this which I should have soon! Sandalorian is a bit more stone fruit forward and a little “too weird” for a general release and eventually became Cerberus.
It’s an awesome coincidence that today is House of Mammoth’s sponsor spotlight as I had this set out a long time ago for today! House of Mammoth is my overall favorite artesian for a lot of reasons. To begin with, Ben does incredible stuff with scents! The way he captures an idea and puts it into fragrance is amazing! But beyond that, the way he centers his whole brand around supporting causes that he believes in is something that I want to throw my entire support behind! I about cried this week when he announced Everett and that will be pre-ordered the instant he opens that up!
I don’t typically use alum, but I do have a bar of Osma LuXuRy alum that I used today. TBH I’ve never used anything else so I have nothing to compare it to. Very little feedback from it today which was nice! The MM24 is another instance of something “Happy Together” as great papa Eld married two razors together to create the best GEM razor that I own!
Todays #photocontest jumps on board with the “happy together” theme with #pets.
