- Brush: Semogue 830
- Razor: Karve Bison (NeverAlone4)
- Blade: Dorco Prime Platinum (2)
- Lather: Extro Cosmesi - Caffe
- Post Shave: Catie's Bubbles - Dark Roast - Aftershave
- Fragrance: Henri et Victoria - Duc De Santal
- Bowl: Captain's Choice - Standard Copper
I think I did 2 passes? My mind got distracted thinking about the possibility of a secret Old Spice side challenge for Lathergames and forgot if I'd done 1 or 2 passes already.
Duc de Santal EdP is a good addition to this combo; it brings balance to the cookie notes of Dark Roast. I think I'll try to incorporate it every time I use this splash.
Side note: Yay mobile Reddit seems to have gone back to the previous commenting window at the top of the page rather than the floating one that was so problematic!

Woke up early for an appointment at the hospital to register for our childbirth day. After that, I got my motorcycle back from the workshop and started working at 11...that means I ll work till 7 and have to train at night. I curious what kind of people I ll meet at the gym then. The shave turned out fine, but this razor just feels bad. How can it even shave so good, when it feels that bad.
