I received this set in a trade, mostly because lavender is very underrepresented in my den and I had never tried anything by Tallow and Steel. And still hadn’t, up until this afternoon, as I never got around to actually using this set. The performance is totally standard, slick but nothing out of this world. And the scent is…lavendery, I’m not a huge lavender guy so it doesn’t do a whole lot for me. Maybe it’s the Mammoth fanboy in me but I like Ben’s take on it in Beloved more. I’m gonna have to upgrade my sample size of the EdP to a full size at some point.
I waited for my wife to go pick up my daughter from camp, grabbed my gear and headed out to the back porch. It’s way too hot to shave outside, but it’s the Lather Games and sacrifices must be made. I sweated into my lather but ultimately persevered.
