Like a fresh orange juice shave! Did a noggin shave to use the new Ethos Mandarin & Orange body shaving soap - it was a fantastic experience. This may shock you, but I have a few citrus aftershaves that could pair with this soap - but I think Stirling complements it so well! Jil Sander Sun is a fantastic orange forward men’s cologne - just right for this type of weather.

I hope everyone has a fantastic day!

So is the "body" soap essentially the same stiff in the jar? :unsure:

It is a hard puck, similar but harder than the F base. Puck fits perfectly in an apothecary mug. It’s really easy to lather up! And of course being citrus - it is phenomenal 😂!

Even knowing this will bring a response from @NurseDave 😂- on a hardness factor - slight less than a Good Fellas Smile puck

Additional Care: Tommy Bahama For Him EdC

What can I say? I love me some citrus. Perfect way to end the day - new Ethos shaving cream and some bespoke Ethos AS - a special mix of citrus and mint. Tommy Bahama is just a fun all around scent - not a lot to say for longevity - but still I love when the warmer weather comes because it is a fun scent.

Second lawn mow of the year already - had to get the weed whacker in a little because it rained so much this week that the grass was like a jungle. Aidan and I are going to do an evening at Urban Air to be different.

I hope everyone has a great evening!

Spring is in full bloom here (at least until it snows at the end of the month just because Mother Nature loves to mess with our heads). So I thought I’d do Shrubbery Sunday……….ok, that was the best I could do - there aren’t any synonyms for Fougère and as you can see, bad ones for ferns. C’est la vie!

So @GearNoir should be pleased I brought out the Moos! And then followed it up with old man juice in the Paco Rabanne Pour Homme - just to make it my own.

It looks to be a start of a brilliant day. Plans - definitely go to the big park after a walk along the Riverwalk, possibly some ice cream along the way, then I plan to do a cooking venture with Aidan as our STEAM effort.

Have a fabulous Sunday!
