  • Post Shave: Barrister & Mann - Reserve Fern - Aftershave

I heard wyze0ne say recently that reserve gets hard over time, and it dawned on me that he's right! I spent extra time loading enough soap, and the lather was really nice.

Spartan Travel Shave #2

  • Brush: Boti Motherlode knot in laminated wooden handle, 30 mm
  • Razor: Wolfman Satin WR1 dual comb 0.74 mm gap head on hollow WRH1 handle
  • Blade: Lord New Platinum Class
  • Lather: Ogallala Bay Rum and Vanilla
  • Aftershave: Speick Men Active
  • Fragrance: Tom Ford Oud Wood

I'm really enjoying these travel shaves more than I thought I would. The Ogallala stick isn't my favourite scent (a bit cloying), but it's super easy to get dense lather from with the Motherlode and I'm having fun dialling in the stick format. Speick splash leaves the same fantastic silky feeling as Pitralon, and Oud Wood++;
