- Brush: Stirling Soap Company Finest Badger 24mm Fan Knot
- Razor: Fatip Piccolo Slant Closed Comb
- Blade: Astra Green (1)
- Lather: Declaration Grooming + Chatillon Lux Collaboration – 88 Chestnut St.
- Post Shave: Cella – Riserva Fresco
- Fragrance: Yves Saint Laurent – L’Homme Ultime
Fine shave. Love the brightness of 88 Chestnut St. I chose Cella Riserva Fresco aftershave not because it’s a collaboration, but because it suits the current transition (where I live, at least) from spring into summer. In addition to the citrus in both the soap and the aftershave, Cella Riserva has herbal notes such as basil and jasmine that lend some lushness and depth.
Wasn’t sure if I had any collaborative fragrances (that is, fragrances marketed as collaborations between houses). Upon checking, however, I discovered that YSL L’Homme Ultime, a scent that happens to go quite well with the two above, is the work of three perfumers (or “noses” as they sometimes say): Anne Flipo, Dominique Ropion, and Juliette Karagueuzoglou. A trio of noses, if you will.
Song about Being Happy…Together
As one of Adam Sandler’s characters famously mused, “Some of us will never find true love.” But that’s not what we’re here to talk about today. For me, the song that comes to mind when I think “Happy Together” is one by the Carpenters…about praising Satan. Just kidding. It’s this song (as performed by Shonen Knife).
