    01 July 2023 Complementary Non Dickkhole Oatcake Soaps Overgrowth - Lather Games Day 1

    • Prep: Warm Shower
    • Brush: Some Making Required 26mm SMR V1
    • Razor: Blackland Dart
    • Razor: Gillette Nacet (4)
    • Lather: Oatcake Soaps - Overgrowth (2)
    • Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Presto A/S, Thayer's Concoction, Cold River Soapworks Sandalwood Post Shave Lotion, Chicago Grooming Co Project Lawnsdale Balm,
    • Fragrance: Narcisco Rodriguez - For Him EdT

    It would be a lie if I said that everything is new to me. With my thrill, it's hard to find something that isn't truly new.

    This Oatcake soap was used a long time back, for one of the Lather Games. I wanted to come back to it to start using it again and get it into rotation.

    I got the Dart a few days ago and this is my 4th use on it.

    Enjoying everyone's post, especially /u/Crisp_Mango. Woke up at 630am and lay in bed listening to that.

    Just checking

    Cheers

    07 July 2023 Complementary Non Dickkhole Barrister and Mann Bay Rum

    • Prep: Warm Shower
    • Brush: Dogwood Cadinsor 28mm Zenith Unbleached
    • Razor: Blackland Blackbird SS
    • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (17)
    • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Bay Rum (17)

    • Post Shave: Cold River Soapworks - Sandalwood Post Shave Lotion
    • Post Shave: Chicago Grooming Co - Project Lawnsdale Balm
    • Fragrance: Anjali - Tiger Bright

    Off travelling for the weekend, so this is probably going to be the only time I can shave.

    Barrister and Mann's Bayrum is the only Bayrum that I enjoy., mainly because I love how the cinnamon, bay and I think clove (??) play in with that orange note. Bonaparte nods to Ferox and Roam, in that I get a lot of thyme from it.

    Anjali Perfumes is a new discovery of mine and I love how warm and spicy Tiger Bright is, without making me smell like I just finished cooking my subcontinental meal. I'm waiting for /u/redmosquitomm to get his green mango scent in so that I can get the low down

    Other hobbies you say - I've been slowly reading up on perfumery and bought a bunch of things to dabble with. That would probably be my new one. Gardening is my main one at the moment.

    Cheers

    • Fragrance: Declaration Grooming - Contemplation

    Totally slammed today.

    Contemplation is absolutely my favourite Dec Scent. It reminds me a lot of the green sweet limes that we used to have in the Middle East. They were green and round, so the name always confused me. Super aromatic peel and an astringent, slightly sweet juice. The EdP takes this scent to a different area on my skin.

    Sudsy Soaperies Ten was a nice pairing with this

    I have no idea if I did the color coordination challenge, but I'll leave that to the respective judge.

    Cheers

    Loved this pairing of Presto and Adagio. I should have used it for Music Day but I decided to save the mild amount of mentholation for todays hot start to the day.

    Can anyone beat SoSusDavid and his threat to beat people at a wetshaving meet?

    Or when SoSusDavid said he could do make brushes better than established artisans?

    Don't you love some dramz? u/Visceralwatch does no drama. All his videos are to the point, informative and unbiased.

    Took me a while to find this

    "GroomingDept and called After the Fire which is in a beef tallow and duck fat base. Officially it's a lime forward "barbershop" scent with smoke and resin. The smoke is derived from cade, guiacwood and labdanum resin. To be honest, I didn't get a whole lot of lime or barbershop; it was very subtle. What I did get more of was an equally subtle smokiness. Overall I'd simply call it a subtle "smoky (forward) barbershop" scent."

    Some of my favourite fougeres here,

    If you haven't tried Le Troisiemme Homme, I highly recommend it. It's a wonderfully dignified scent, well blended and has a touch of a clove/carnation spice in it that really differentiates it.

    Cheers

    Did you know that a pineapple consists of many berries that have grown together?

    Thank to /u/J33pGuy13 for the PIF.

    I do miss Cadinsor, especially after getting to meet him at Maggs.

    Also miss Ruds reviews these days, after seeing all the junk reviews the influencers put out (with the exception of our dear /u/VisceralWatch ). I think I was too hard on him and his line about matching scents.

    Cheers
