Another great shave with no nicks or irritation. Clubman + Atriox is just a lovely combination.
Thus concludes my week with Outback. It’s a real winner in my book. Easy to make a super slick lather, with a nice and simple scent. It might be a little more patchouli than I typically go for, but it works quite well in the blend.
I’m not yet 100% sure which soap I want to use for next week, but I’m leaning toward Stirling’s Seine Reserve. I’ve very much enjoyed using a single soap all week and may continue with this pattern indefinitely. We’ll see!

I love that pattern of one soap per week. I would have to seriously thin my collection in order to do that.

I’m definitely not thinning my collection as part of this!
I do think it’s a good way to make a dent in some soap though. Otherwise I think I’ll have a bunch of soaps that I only used once or twice like last year.
Of course, that means it’s likely I’ll have a bunch of soap I used zero times this year…
The struggle is real.

It certainly is! 😂
