Have a great day and enjoy the games.
I am not a fan of lavender, but here it tones down the spicy and sweet scent very well. Infinity is “kind maskuline”. Miro infinity is a contrast to Excursion and I am not able to see that they are dupes of the same fragrance.
We are back on theme and have a dupe of La nuit de L’Homme itself.
Fragrance:
This will be the scent that I ll wear, when I am walking the beaches on sunset in italy in white linen pants.
Musk and patchoulli in that concentration make me look forward to times when I am married and have our first vacation without kids.
O’Selvaggio is a dupe of EAU Sauvage, the calabrian bergamot heavy start from more than 30 years ago.
A bit sad, that I was not able to get a dupe of the YSL scent, but I am going with another dupe today.
Aftershave:
Unfortunately, I had bad lather today and could not enjoy the scent to its fullest.
It also has a mild spiciness from cardamom and coumarin.
Excursion is heavyier on the bergamot side, without beeing to citric like Neon Sun would be.
Excursion is “inspired by” Yves St. Laurent La nuit de L’Homme and listed as a dupe on the thristy badger site.
But with a lot of focus, I finally had a great shave.
Zero slickness
On the second and third pass , my lather got aerie.
The audio feedback was so laud, I was glad we had after 6 am or the neighbours would have called the cops.
When your lather is crap, you have to focus on your technique.
More like dry shaving! Wetshaving?
I used very little water and ended up with some substance that was more like the white paste we used i primary school art class.
As the brush has pretty huge loft, I often have trouble to get the lather that I want.
My brush soaked while I brushed my teeth. The brush itself is probably a dupe of a Yaki (purple haze?).
Brush and shave:
But challenge is challenge and 0.22 points are a lot.
Let me shave clean once again, please!
This morning, I woke up with 3 days of beard growth.
Crappy lather again?
I was not looking forward to todays challenge.
