I’m in the United States and I like using some particularly globetrotting hardware for today’s theme.
Going down the list, I lathered up my Indonesian shave soap with a brush handle from a Russian artisan paired with a boar knot made by an Italian manufacturer. I shaved with a Japanese blade in a beautiful razor manufactured in Switzerland. I followed up my shave with a splash of German aftershave and a spray of French fragrance. Coffee is from Burundi and music is from theatrical Swedish pop-metal band Ghost. (I should have made time to see that concert film in theaters. Holding out hope for a 4k disc release.)
Beyond the international theme, the link between these scents is tenuous, but I picked three options that are subtly floral. Also, I’ve heard the Fearless scent is close to Green Irish Tweed; I paired it with a fragrance that also has some lemony citrus and ambergris.
Before I go, thank you to my fellow judges and the folks that planned this year’s Games. This is always a blast and it’s been wonderful working with you.
And thank you to all our players for another fun competition. See you next year!
