Blade: Gillette Platinum [7]

Lather: House of Mammoth - Everett - Soap

Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Everett - Splash

Fragrance: House of Mammoth - Everett - Extrait de Parfum

I’ve been looking forward to this shave since I received this set in early June. Everett is a wonderful scent. It starts with sweet orange and then dries down to a scent that reminds me a little of Rumble.

Rating: 4/5

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

  That’s a really nice shave! I almost went with RS and a 14 also, but I’ve been sitting on some Spanish soap all LG. My hand was forced.

YAYYY! @AutoBot@sub.wetshaving.social is back on patrol! Thanks @walden@sub.wetshaving.social for fixing it!

LG are done, I’ve cleared my docket first thing in the morning and shaved with Roman Spice as the second thing. This set has arrived during Lather Games, and I’ve been itching to use it. I love the fresh apple opening and I’m still processing scent. I think it’s going to get a lot of use this summer.

  I have Roman Spice. What a great idea to start July with it! I was going to pass on this but @whosgotthepudding insisted I buy it. That was great advice. Shawn is batting 1000 on the Seaforth fragrances.

    Yeah, Shawn and Dennis just crush it when it comes modernizing those classic scents.

    Yeah, it’s crazy, literally all they’re scents are winners IMO

  I really like the opening but I’m especially fond of the dry down. It’s really almost two different scents at that point, to my nose.

  Well, almost. The auto post software was self hosted in Docker before, but that’s still broken. There’s an open ticket on GitHub, and it’s not just ours that isn’t working.
  
  It’s also hosted by the author at schedule.lemmings.world. Same version, but I don’t think he uses Docker, and his is working.
  
  So the posts are coming from there for now.

    Oh well, as long as it works

  Reserve Fern gives my son a bit of frag burn. Oh well.
  
  Lol, when your toddler needs to smell like a grandpa, sacrifices need to be made!

    Lol. Hmmm. It’s early, but not that early!

Brush: Farvour Turn Crafts w/ 26mm Maggards SHD Two Band Fan

Razor: Iberia 14 Doble Temple 8/8, Extra Hollow Square Point

Lather: Itakha - Malva-Rosa

Post Shave: Noble Otter - Two Kings Aftershave Splash

First time trying out this Malva-Rosa. The scent is really nice. Pretty much just rose and geranium. I had a hard time sniffing out any of the Dragon’s Blood. Paired up super well with Two Kings.

Performance was great. Didn’t take much effort to build and wasn’t crazy thirsty or anything. Slicker than snot. Both primary and residual were great.

This Farvour just showed up from u/EldrormR. The Mags SHD are fantastic knots.

This Iberia is fantastic. I will go so far as to say it is the best feeling razor I have shaved with. Image

  I haven’t heard of Itakha but love trying soaps that are less common on the sub.
  
  You were incredibly lucky with that Iberia. I’ve only seen one. It was a rusted mess, and had proportions ruined by poor honing.
