Nice shave. The Ikon Short Comb is a bit of an underrated razor. Saw it discussed somewhere yesterday and decided to grab it for use today. Clean, free of nicks and such.

A quick look at the scents on the software for today:

Iced Coffee shave soap - As per Stirling, "Coffee! With menthol and a little hazelnut, “Made with a roasted black coffee fragrance with a hint of hazelnut, this soap also packs an icy menthol kick. This is a great unisex scent.”

I ♥ Bacon aftershave - As per Talent Soap Factory "savory notes of hickory smoked bacon and wood smoke are enhanced with nuances of Vermont maple sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and fresh morning coffee."

From the bottle of the aftershave a poem:

There once was a pig from Peru Who said, "I love bacon too. I know its a sin, but I can't help but give in. Bacon just makes me go Woo!"

-Mary Bukowski

A quick note: For the aftershave when you put it on it smells like a pancake breakfast. Unfortunately as the scent wears on the aftershave - and it could sub for a cologne or possibly more (it is detectable on my skin at least 6 hours out) - the something is getting warm scent along with the maple begins to project more than the rest of the bundle. People begin asking if something is getting warm (like an electrical chord) so I usually save this aftershave for times like Thanksgiving where there are lots of food scents. With context people get it and understand the scent (again this is 3+ hours out) however without - some get nervous.

Take care and have a good one.
