July 5, 2023 – LG23 Day 5: Canned Shave Goop

  • Razor: Gillette 195 Adjustable E-1 “Mal” #DIAL #BRASSING
  • Blade: Gillette Winner (2)
  • Lather: Perio, Inc – Barbasol Original
  • Post Shave: Mennen – Skin Bracer
  • Fragrance: Azzaro – Pour Homme – EdT

Today’s shave is all about the love, people!

Daily Challenge: If I were to (re-)create a perfect, original shaving scent, I would first have to go on a long journey to find that perfect, original shaving scent. Something that exudes the heart and soul of my boyhood barbershop. Something that would flat-out leave my perfuming competitors in my sillage. I would have to say my nose loves the scents of Talc, Rose, Bergamot, Oakmoss, Vetiver, Coumarin, and Musk. If they all come together in a super-nice fragrant package, I am 100 percent, prime-time in love with myself…BOOM! With any luck I’ll get a [Cease and Desist] letter from Douglas telling me how much he loves what I do to him.

Tying it all together: If, indeed, the scent of Barbasol contains the aforementioned notes, it pairs nicely with the powdery, green, musky, and sweet notes of Skin Bracer Original. Azzaro Pour Homme is a natural choice particularly its notes of Bergamot, Vetiver, Oakmoss, and Musk. Eat your heart out, Douglas, you can only dream of creating something this good. In fact you can only dream of creating anything that you didn’t steal first, which is NOTHING! Suck it, Smythe!!
