I'm also thinking of adding community sources DQs. Bonus point if you spot and call out a DQ successfully but...
I didn't understand that part. What's a community source DQ?
Destroy your Dermis December?. Interesting, go on 🤔🤔
Oh look, Dave has done the MMMMFF thing
Yayy 🎉
his aversion to themed shaves!
Booo 👎👎
Weird justification for impulse buying? Maybe. It’ll suffice though. 🤔
This is the way 😅
Tobacconist ++;
These two scents work so well together, perfect for a second luxury MicroMatic Mammoth Monday shave. For a morning shave, I'd have added Gratiot League Square frag, but that would be a bit much right now. It's a pity that Almond Leather was discontinued, but seeing how Ben really excels at creating new fragrances, this is easy to get over.
I'm really enjoying the return to GEM razors these days. Maybe I will do a complete GEM tour from 1912 to Contour II this month. Although that's always a bit unsatisfying because it starts with a crescendo and ends with a whimper.
I also haven used this fluted C&H brush in a while. I'm considering pulling the knot and replacing it with a v25 Fanchurian. I just don't enjoy this synth knot so much anymore, but I love this handle.
Same, and I still have 70ᵗʰ to include, too
Shire really nails the LOTR theme.
It's alright, you still have 7 chances 😀 (6 if today's SLS is already locked in)
Haven't used SV in a while. Time to remedy that
Feels good to do a MicroMatic Mammoth Monday Formation Flight again after a few months of exclusive open blade use.
The Flying Wing is such a nice razor to use. Efficient, decent blade feel but not in-your-face, pretty. The Shire + Valedictorian combination is a winner, but I'm thinking I should have tried using the Roam Two frag. Shire and Roam Two should work together well, I'm just not sure whether Shire can bridge the gap between Valedictorian (cleaner, fresher, less outdoorsy) and Roam Two (very outdoorsy, not fully dirty, but definitely not clean).
A Valedictorian (Bilbo's living room) -> Shire (the adventure begins!) -> Roam Two (a few days in, torn clothes, muddy boots, but spirits still high) progression would likely work better, but the cooling agent in Shire is too jarring for me to enjoy it. Luckily there is a batch of uncool Shire splash in the works according to inside sources (i.e., straight from the mammoth's mouth)!
Share your TabacTuesday shave of the day!
My reshipper just delivered a combined Stirling/DG mailcall with a set of Stirling Friends to the End soap, splash, and solid cologne, and Cerberus splash and edp.
Baccarat Rouge is one of my wife's favourite fragrances (for herself) and I really like it on her. I already gave it a spin and wrote it up here.
I got the Cerberus soap when it was first released, and not having gotten the splash and frag was a big regret of mine, so I jumped on the opportunity of this re-release
I finally got my bottle of 3 Scots and a Valet Autostrop. I've been meaning to try an Autostrop razor for a while now, but there was always some other razor higher on my priority list. I'm happy I finally pulled the trigger, and this set arrived in almost pristine condition. It was either expertly cleaned or used very little. I'm excited to try it tomorrow.
My first impression of 3 Scots is a cooler Spiced, or Spiced is 3 Scots with Vanilla. I'm looking forward to experiencing the scent in more contexts over the coming days and weeks.
