Birth of Cool is an homage to Miles Davis. Made up of several pre blends, mostly tobacco related. This smush comes courtesy of u/J33pGuy13. This is my first time using a Macduffs soap. The performance was pretty solid. It was easy enough to whip up a slick and thick lather. Primary slickness was certainly there, and notably, so was the residual. A little bit of this went a long way. The scent was pretty unique, and I enjoyed it. Pre lathering, it reminded me of a baked good. Once lathered, it almost smelt like something new each time I whiffed it. The tobacco was pretty consistently there throughout. Being as how there is a dupe of Tom Fords TV, I couldn't think of a better post shave on hand to go with it. Haverford paired really well with it. I think I'd like to get TV at some point.

I never claimed to be an artist
