Brush before shave #9
I went into the office for the first time since May today. I’ve been staying at home to help my wife who is unable to go back to work yet. I got a lot done there at least. Today’s shave started with a drier brush for loading. It needed several additions of water to go from pasty to a nice lather. Again no nicks or weepers, and not a lot of burning from the splash. The coolant in the splash feels wonderful after a day wearing pants and a long sleeve shirt at a warm office. I can smell the scent better tonight, but still not getting any of the nuances beyond lemon and vanilla/creme. I think by this many shaves last year with Alive, I was getting a bit of apple out of it. Maybe I’ll try a spray of the EdP later, and see if I can get something else. Still really like this set though, but I’m hoping my nose will get more distinct notes at some point.
