More Petrichor. It’s opening day at the local swimming pond and my sister is in town with her kids. We’re going to take a dip, then come home for nap time, then maybe go fishing, then start up the grill for dinner. It’s going to be quite a day.

[ I had to look this up. It has been a very long time since I read the books. ]

I refreshed the edge on this chopper for the first time since getting it. Roman has great steel, and it’s a perfect marriage with the Nakayama. I wish I had done this sooner. I liked the edge on it just fine before. I absolutely love it now.
Damn fine shave.

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
I bought Roman Spice on the advice of @whosgotthepudding . I should take his advice more often.
This 6/8 Dubl Duck is a new arrival. I have the 5/8 as well, but much prefer the razor in this size.

Lovely shave with Terre d’Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver dupe Desert Vetiver. Love the scent, love the soap. This could be a nice AA setup.

Hell yeah!! As good as the 70^th^ Anniversary trifecta was for AA, I would prefer your Desert Vetiver setup better. Though DV is regarded as a dupe of EIV, it comes across more as in-family to me, and complements EIV rather than copies it. I have the same feeling about Opuntia and Creed Aventus.
