First of all- it is early as F, and I’m still late to the show. You people have got a sickness/dedication.

After reading so much about TSF this month, I had to pick some up to try for myself. It was hard to choose as there were several that peaked my interest and I am trying to have some self restraint. I favorited some for the future and went with my initial feeling, Peppermint Patti. I love peppermint, York Peppermint Patties, and “Peanuts” Peppermint Patty .. it was a no brainer that I would also love TSF Peppermint Patti. The package took maybe 2 days to arrive and as I was tearing the box open like a monster I discovered 2 soaps!! 2 full sized soaps! PP AND LEMON!! I must have been really good this year or Aaron really knows how to win people over. Maybe both. I was so pleased I turned around and placed another order (galaxy grape). Time will tell if there is another stowaway , I just hope whoever is packing these orders up doesn’t get in trouble for missing inventory bc this stuff is “pretty, pretty, good.”

There are no lemon notes in this fragrance so how does it pair? I’m not a perfumer, but I think it compliments nicely. If you use your imagination anything could be true.

Challenge: Brush cleaning?? You mean the rinse after lathering in shave soap doesn’t make it clean? Wet brush, a dab of dawn dish soap , massage /work soap in getting down to the roots, let sit for 5 or so minutes with some soft music , thoroughly rinse , tease the hair once in each direction by gently fanning the tips, then air dry. That’s the way to treat yo’self.. or your brush.
