Fantastic shave on the most famous Eve. Pulled out the Jaguar today to wrap it up. Today nothing but chill hopefully - Holiday movies, folding some laundry, and wrapping presents.

Started the day out with some of my new toys from @MarkB - while wearing my Surf Shirt from @GearNoir - hanging 10 and drinking coffee! This bourbon barrel aged coffee is mad crazy good!

Aftershave: Stirling Soap Arcadia Aftershave

A Terre D’Hermés shave - you’ll sniff your nose out! The Sheffield razor was just fantastic - and I really dig the scales! And I have to say - I really love the scent of the preshave - one of the spoils from @MarkB.

The EdP is one of my favs - but for some reason my nose itches with the vetiver which is a note that I like - so I have to go gently on the sprays 😂

Well I thought the benefit of having all your kids above the age of 17 was that this holiday was a sleep in holiday - but today Aidan had other plans. My other kids held true at least - probably won’t be up before 10.

Have a very happy day today everyone! Please be safe if you are traveling and stay warm!
 
If there’s one day a year it’s OK to be woken up obnoxiously way to early…I guess it’d be today!

A Merry Christmas to you and the fam!

So Christmas Story/shave soap is TDH inspired? Love the idea!

Well Don- I’ve got this new 1955 shave soap that brings me back to a simpler time. Using a razor from that era, and finished with a cologne that is 1955 but double strength. ‘Nuf said.

Day spent playing with Aidan’s new chemistry set - seeing the different color flames that we could create. Now off for a nice walk along the river. Hope everyone‘s day is going well!
