July 1, 2023 – LG 1: Bonjour Lather Games

• Brush: Grizzly Bay Elite Razor 28mm Silvertip
• Razor: Valet Autostrop #SELFSHARPENING
• Blade: Feather FHS10 (1)
• Lather: Through the Fire Fine Craft – Campfire
• Post Shave: Declaration Grooming – Scrumtrulescent
• Fragrance: House of Mammoth – Rumble

Day 1, woot!. Never used an auto strop before and never used TTFFC.

Let’s start software. TTFFC is a decent base, not knock your socks off but plenty serviceable. Scent wise campfire it is a decently sweet, smoky, tobacco and vanilla- like eating a more. Coincidently I am headed off camping today, and hoping limited cell service can keep me posting in the games. Scrumtrulescent really builds onto that chocolate flair, quite gourmand. Lastly, my first go around with rumble and I’m impressed. More chocolate, while adding some booziness and dirtiness from the woods and vetiver, but overall much less sweet than the prior two. Quite a rich thruple of scents. #FOF

Hardware wise, the valet auto strop is new to me. Thanks u/eldrormR for hooking it up on the zaar. Uses a blade similar to GEM SEs but without a spine, and appears to only work with one orientation. Its rigidity seems between a standard DE and GEM SE. I went into the shave with similar angles to using a GEM based on the head design, which I rarely use. Same trouble spots same as SE for me namely under nose and bit around chin. #photocontest (thematic)
