  • Brush: Extro Comesi Synthetic 26mm
  • Razor: Gillette Tech
  • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (3)
  • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. – Piacenza
  • Post Shave: Chicago Grooming Co. (Formerly Oleo Soapworks) – Shiloh

Acqua do Parma Colonia. This was my first artisan aftershave. What I wore on my first date with my partner. Eight months later we were walking by the AdP storefront next to the Spanish steps in Rome. Life is good, love is good, and these dupes serve to always remind me of that. Shiloh is a big bright lemon head. Drying down into something sparkly and powdery and beautiful. Stirlings Piacenza is a bit more muted and earthier. Not overwhelming but clean, setting you up for the sharp splash from Shiloh. I built a quick but great lather with my tricolor Italian flag brush that I purchased just outside the Vatican walls. This is too good a memory and scent for me to waste a shitty lather on. Love on. 🤙
