Jul 22, 2023 - Strange Times for Berry Club
- Prep: Klar - Activated Charcoal - Face Soap
- Brush: Shore Shave Pestle 24mm Motherlode Knot
- Razor: Gillette Rocket Heavy Duty 500 (1950s)
- Blade: Perma-Sharp Super [4]
- Lather: Abbate y La Mantia - Don Jose - Soap
- Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Atomic Holiday - Aftershave
- Fragrance: Chatillon Lux - Agua Fresca - Eau de Toilette
Admittedly this is a stretch, but in honor of this weekend's viral movie feud, Barbenheimer, the banana and coconut of Don Jose hopefully evokes images of Malibu Barbie, matched with Atomic Holiday to call to mind the work of Oppenheimer. It's not quite in line with the original intent of the scent being dedicated to Enrico Fermi. Also, last year there was an Atomic age hashtag for razors made in the period between the late 1940s and the early 1950s.
The shave today was full of botanical berries such as banana, pineapple, melon, strawberry, and cucumber. A strange time for Berries Club indeed.
