  • June 27
  • Brush: Chisel and Hound – 26mm AP Shave Co Synbad
  • Razor: Aylsworth Razors - Drakkant
  • Blade: Astra Superior Platinum
  • Lather: Spearhead Shaving – Seaforth! Spiced
  • Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving – Seaforth! Spiced
  • Fragrance: Antonio Banderas – Spirit

Spiced is loaded with spices - 10 to be exact! For the sake of the theme, here they are: Mandarin, Aldehydes, Carnation, Anise, Cinnamon, Clove, Cardamom, Benzoin, Tonka, and Vanilla.

I really enjoyed this set. Even when I first opened the tub, I could immediately smell this scent had a lot of stuff going on. It is jam packed with, well, spices. It’s a wonder how Spearhead came up with the name of this one. The scent is vibrant, lively and (to me) has an old, vintage feel to it. This aftershave is the perfect sidekick to the soap, packing a gentle punch (love tap?) with its invigorating blend of spices. A splash of this stuff and my face felt like it was shopping in a spice market. There are so many spices to smell! There’s no alcohol in this splash, so it felt pretty gentle on my face. After splashing it on, it gave me a warm, spicy embrace, as if a cinnamon stick and a clove had a passionate tango on my cheek. It’s refreshing, bold, and left my skin feeling as smooth. To finish, Spirit is a blend of amber, incense, and sweet spices, perfectly complementing the earlier layers of spiced soap and splash. With a few sprays, I felt like I was living in the spice market, instead of just walking through it!

Challenge: I did it. This one was a little tough for me, but I took it slow and had a beautifully slick lather to work with, so I managed to complete it without cutting myself.
