June 8, 2024 - Small Business Saturday... but in June
- Brush: AP shave Co. - Tuxedo 24mm synthetic Black & Butterscotch signature series
- Razor: Gillette - Parat 1940s TTO
- Blade: Personna Platinum
- Lather: Maggards Razors - Orange Menthol
- Post Shave: Stirling - Margaritas in the Artic
- Fragrance: Goodfellow No. 09 - Cypress & Grapefruit
SOAP - Well let’s just say there is a lot of orange!! Lathers really well but I didn’t get a lot of menthol at first but it kicks in eventually.
RAZOR - This Parat is very mild. Glides well, not aggressive at all in fact you may have to do at least a couple passes to really get a BBS shave.
THE THEME- Let me start by saying this was my most straight forward setup so far. It’s straight forward all the way through! Orange soap, lime splash, grapefruit fragrance = Citrus overload.
I have had many ridiculous reasons for buying shaving shit I shouldn’t. My last order was one of those. I place an order from Maggards last year for LG2023 and they sent me a couple of samples for free and one of them was Angelique. I like it so much I reorder and got the full tub just to receive it a week later and regret not getting the rest of the set up. So I ordered the splash and Edt in the same day. So in summary I placed three orders for the same scent in a period of three weeks!! 🤦♂️
Was it worth it!!! Oh yeah…..
