  SSL is the perfect summer scent. Today’s shave was another test shave. This razor had a bunch of issues, and I was convinced that the shave would be lousy. Nope! Terrific shave from this razor. The video I made while working on the razor is quite long and will take me a while to cut down to size. I’ll update this comment when that’s done.

  Happy 4th to those of you who are Americans!

      SSL was such a stunner when it first came out, but Shawn has managed to make each Seaforth! scent unique and world-class.

  • Brush: Maggard 24mm Tuxedo Synthetic
  • Razor: Chiseled Face - Legacy Raw Titanium (#69)
  • Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium (2)
  • Lather: Barrister & Mann - Lyssa - Soap
  • Post Shave: Southern Witchcrafts - Roman Spice - Aftershave

  Southern Witchcrafts Roman Spice?! Yes, well… I had unscented aftershave from SW from when I did AA using unscented stuff, and I had a sample of Roman Spice from Dennis, so I figured I see if it’d work.

  It did work, and it’s pretty great. The scent strength is just about perfect.

    a sample of Roman Spice from Dennis

    Was it a frag sample or splash?

    • walden@sub.wetshaving.social ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Frag. It was really strong, and just a tiny vial with a dipper, no atomizer. I sort of wonder if it was higher than EdP strength. Straight frag oil, even.

      Dennis sold a small amount on discord for $5 to cover shipping.

      I actually didn’t like the scent out of the vial, but I love it diluted in some aftershave.
