Mar 3, 2024 - MM24 2nd Match-Up: SW vs. CFG

  • Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts Purple Hybrid 28mm Declaration Grooming B7 Knot
  • Razor: EldrormR Industries MM24 #MMarch24
  • Blade: Personna GEM PTFE [3]
  • Lather: Southern Witchcrafts - Lycanthropy - Soap (Vegan)
  • Post Shave: Southern Witchcrafts - Lycanthropy - Aftershave (Alcohol Free)
  • Fragrance: Chatillon Lux - Sunrise on LaSalle - Eau de Toilette

SW and CFG will be a close match-up today. So many sub favorites on either side, and many complimenting or playing off of the other. Both have incredible soap bases and have extended into hardware—with the Dogclaration brush I used today as an example.

SW Desairology was my introduction to artisan shave soaps. As such, SW beats out CFG by a small margin. Lycanthropy, which I despised when I first sampled it, has recently become a top favorite. Enough that I just bought a full tub at the end of last year after finishing off the sample I had from years ago.

Rating: 5/5
