• Brush: Ap Shave Co Synbad 24mm
• Razor: GEM Micromatic Open Comb
• Blade: Personna GEM PTFE
• Lather: Shannon’s Soaps – Bay Patchouli Grapefruit
• Post Shave: Proraso – Menthol and Eucalyptus

There was a wayward time of my life where a woman drug me around to jam band shows and may have provided a variety of consumables before me to consume. I saw thing. And I smelled things. People, places, plants, oils. Yeah, there was a lot of patchouli during those wayward times. Never on me, but my god was it everywhere. I also worked for an independent natural foods store run by anthroposophists, where patchouli was seemingly pumped through the air vents. Im not ashamed of them but I don’t miss those times and I certainly do not miss those scents. Bay rum is a big no no for me as well but here we are. The grapefruit was a bit redeeming but faded quickly from the smush that was so generously provided to me by u/eructate. First time using Shannon’s, great performance. I had no idea what to splash so I just went clean and generic, good for Shannon that the scent continues to shine through the menthol and eucalyptus, bad for me being smelling like my ex girlfriend and minimum wage work slinging granola while deathly hungover.

For this challenge there really is only one song to rule them all. I saw there was some Ween in here earlier, whose fans may oftentimes smell like patchouli, but this song nails the theme on the head with some lighthearted(?) irreverence to this often terribly used scent…

Ween- Hippy Smell
