Jun. 1, 2024 - The Last Time I Can Get Points on This Day
- Prep: Shower, Baxter Shave Tonic
- Brush: AP Shave Co. G5A
- Razor: Heritage Collection Gibbs 15
- Blade: Personna Platinum (1)
- Lather: Areffa Soap - The Sea Son
- Post Shave: Old Spice (Indian)
In previous years "New to You"/"Bonjour Lather Games" was an easy win as I had a stack of Old Spice dupes I'd never tried before from soapmakers I'd never used but today I realized that this was it (and it's not even a real Old Spice dupe just a Old Spice LE dupe). This is the last time I can earn a point on this day because I've tried every soapmaker's Old Spice dupe. Farewell to this day's points... unless, of course, some intrepid soap maker I've never used before makes one. That list is getting way shorter, though.
As for the rest of the shave... I... ummm... I've never used Old Spice after shave. Yeah... that's it. That's for sure.
Wow! Guys! Have you tried this stuff? It's pretty amazing. It's got some complex scents in there. I think some citrus? Any one ever heard of it. I may have to buy a whole bottle of this stuff. I feel like it would feel good in a ceramic bottle. Does it come in bottles? Mine says it's made in India? Could someone explain the difference? Do you think that's the same as the one in my CVS? I'm sure it is, they probably all smell the same, right? I can't believe I've never used this stuff before. My life is changed! My eyes are opened to the grandeur of scenting! Come, join me, everyone, in using this as-until-now unheard of after shave. I just did some googling and it looks like this may be a vintage scent that everyone use to wear but isn't worn so much now. Man, wow. Wowy wowy wow. So new. Newer than new. Definitely new to me. I hope someone can let me know all about it in detail. Like some sort of connoisseur of this stuff. Whoever that guys is must be pretty awesome... and good-looking. Like really, really, really ridiculously good-looking.
