I guess how “hip” can I be if I don’t even get the phrase right
One of my Favorites.
Bummer - but I guess they can’t all be winners. What is it that doesn’t appeal to you?Got MacDuff's Winter Cabin today. I LOVE their Birch+Root soap. Unfortunately, the scent of this one is a miss for me. [emoji2369]

I gravitate towards sweet scents. This has that, bit there's some sort of musk to it, especially in the dry down. I really don't like musk scents.
You can't win them all. Lol

So I earlier posted that this month was my first exposure to Aqua Velva, but that turned out to be a lie. After using it once I immediately identified it as my grandfather’s brand of aftershave (proraso was his brand of soap, which I’ve known for years). Reading a few blogs and watching some vids people say this is even closer to the old stuff of my memory, so I had to try a bottle. Excited to try it out this week.
One of my favs! It was my father’s daily AS.
Got a surprise from someone who knows me well, thanks brother @NurseDave made my whole week!

My latest delivery was a box of samples from Maggard Razors. I feel like I've been missing out on all the fancy-schmancy soaps so I grabbed one each from most of the ones I see on a regular basis. I'm really into tobacco and woods at the moment so I picked what I assumed would appeal. I've only used the House of Mammoth so far and it was excellent in every way.

Hang around much on here and you’ll quickly add CBL Soap, Stirling, and LNHC to the list!

Man! I love T. Hessen-Bruch razors! I've owned several, they are great shavers and not super fancy. The bear logo is super cool! I'm hoping someday to get ahold of the fancy metal scales, they look really cool. Not sure if they are aluminum or stainless.
