I didn't know there was a coconut version of Creeper. Ruby Red and Red Creeper are a nice refreshing scent.

Yeah, Coconut Creeper is great. One time they released a half dozen or so Creepers all at once. Of course they sell out in minutes. Such as it goes with THB.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Very nice shave this morning. Nothing fancy, just great products which gave great results. Super slick lather from the ETHOS Grooming Essentials "Clean" shave soap, built with the Paladin "Purple Haze" 2-Band Select badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the RazoRock "Mamba 70", and I finished with Alt-Innsbruck EdC.

Hope you've had a great day. :)

That Alt-Innsbruck EdC looks interesting. What's the scent like?

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Wonderful shave this morning. New soap / splash day with the arrival of Phoenix Shaving's new "The Watcher" yesterday. An homage to Yardley's "Black Label" line. Now I've never tried the original so I can't speak to its accuracy, but this has a nice, Old School vibe to it which is right in my wheelhouse. Nice, powdery, spicy, woody scent with extremely slick lather built with the Wild West Brushworks "Bisbee" Sweet Spot badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the 50's Schick injector, and I finished the matching splash mixed with my personal blend of witch hazel tonic, hyaluronic acid serum & a few drops of ETHOS Reméde serum.

Hope you've had a great day. :)

Love the Watcher, have the complete set PAA offers. Suppose to be a dupe of Yardley Black. It foes smell like the scent my grandfather used. But never knew what that was until now. Found some Yardley Black on ebay. Pretty close. Almost exact.
