July 10th 2023 - Lather Games Day 10
- Brush: Dogclaration B9A #SHD
- Razor: Gillette Sheraton #REGUS
- Blade: Bolzano Superinox (5)
- Lather: Barrister and Mann - Paganini's Violin
- Post Shave: Barrister and Mann - Sandalwood balm
- Fragrance: House of Mammoth - Shire
Paganini's Violin is such a pleasant, clean scent and Soft Hearts is such a fine base, this shave was very nice. The Sheraton (REGUS proof) can be bitey but wasn't today, it was very smooth. Everything's coming up Oswald today. Draw a Soap day is one of my favorites during Lather Games, and it was fun taking 20 minutes from my work day to make my contribution. The lettering needs work but overall I think it came out pretty well.
For scent-synchronicity, the clean scent of Paganini's Violin went nicely with the creamy Barrister sandalwood, which like Paganini's Violin is not very complex but is very comforting. And I feel the same way about Shire, the dry-down is simple and comforting, with a bit of grassiness to add some complexity lacking from the soap and balm.
