SOTD - 7/9/2024

Moon Soaps Santa Cruz
Brush by Grizzly Bay
Alpha Shaving Works Outlaw Evolution Bronze Special Edition

In my opinion, this is the BEST scent from Moon Soaps ever!

From the Moon Soaps website:

Our Santa Cruz fragrance blend captures the essence of sun-drenched summer days spent in the iconic beach town of Santa Cruz, California where Moon Soaps resides.

Scent Notes: Santa Cruz Shaving Soap is a creamy and tropical blend of Coconut, Ripe Banana, Juicy Pineapple, sweet Vanilla Cotton Candy, Warm Beach Sand, Amber, Caramel, and a touch of Cocoa Butter. The matching Aftershave Splash expands on these notes with the addition of a deeper Dark Coconut for a very refined and mature finish.

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Great shave this morning. Returned to Taylor of Old Bond Street and their excellent "Grapefruit" shave cream. Wonderfully sharp, tart grapefruit scent, with excellent lather built with the Paladin "PK-47" 2-band badger brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the Gillette Aristocrat and I finished with Master Soap Creations "Grapefruit Zest" aftershave tonic.

Hope you have a great day. :)
