June 25 2024: Christmas In July

  • Brush: Zenith MOAR BOAR
  • Razor: Red Imp Wedge
  • Lather: Ariana & Evans - Christmas Coquito
  • Post Shave: Wholly Kaw - King of Bourbon
  • Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Vespers

Christmas Coquito was the first artisan shave soap I had, it was sent to me for free by someone on Reddit. I thought the hot face I got from it was normal. I killed most of the tub during my early days of wetshaving, filled a sample tub with some, and then tossed the rest once I got some better soaps. But it's fun to bring out once a year for Lather Games and remember where it all started for me. It shares a vanilla element with King of Bourbon, and then the cranberry/sandalwood/Mousse de Saxe of Vespers added some needed depth to the progression of smells. To get further in the Christmas spirit I used a green brush and a red razor. And yes, I wore my Phillies hat to celebrate their being the best team in baseball. Didn't really affect the shave in any way.
