June 27th, 2025: Menthol–

• Brush: Maggard Razors - G5 24mm Synthetic
• Razor: Chiseled Face Legacy Raw Titanium - (#69)
• Blade: Personna P74 (91)
• Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Margaritas in the Arctic - Soap
• Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Weinstrasse - Aftershave
• Fragrance: House of Mammoth - Jitterbug - EdP

Theme justification: Having “in the arctic” in the scent name means it contains menthol!

Relevant post-shave: I have a handful of Chatillon Lux aftershaves, and I think they all contain menthol. Weinstrasse seems to have the most menthol of them, so that’s what I used. I’m not sure if it actually has an increased amount of menthol compared to the others, or if I get frag burn which is accentuated by the menthol, making everything feel that much worse :-)

I’ve figured out that Chatillon Lux aftershaves (and toner) are superb if you just use a small amount. I also make sure my skin is nice and wet to water it down a bit.

Jitterbug paired really well with Weinstrasse! I’ll have to explore this combo again in the future. They’re both semi-sweet, but not cloying. Some boozy type of fruit/floral in both of them too, maybe. Good stuff.
