Just got caught up with the last 3 days. I’ll stay out of the brush knot kurfuffle because the most exotic answer I have is to check with Maggard’s, they have some nice 2band badgers.

I suspect the reaction you got from the Tabac and leather is due to vanillin content. Some scents have a pretty high (relative to ZERO) content and that can affect some people. Looks like I’ll be holding off a full release until I can confirm the planned concentration doesn’t cause irritation.

I’m really hoping the black rose oud scent treats you well.

Razor: Rockwell 6s Plate 5

Blade: Gillette Rubie (10)

Brush: Paladin 26 mm Butterscotch Moe

Soap: CBL Roasted Oatmeal Stout

Aftershave 1: Thayers Cucumber

Aftershave 2: Barbasol Pacific Rush

Waiting for my mail call, I finally gave in and shaved for today. Since I was waiting for my CBL order I decided to use a CBL and man this stuff smells yummy and shaves even better. Topped off with the Pacific Rush which has a little rush to it and smells good going on but now a few minutes later I get nothing. Oh well, I can always add some Florida Water for scent (Thanks again Doug)
Who's off tomorrow ??.............................this guy is. Probably work at organizing more in the shop (Translation - throw junk out) Have a wonderful evening Cadre !!!
 
Ooooh clicky thing!

KJ might kill me but I am going to say that Harvest Oud scent wise is BETTER than Roasted Oatmeal Stout
