  Olympus is one of those fragrances that provides a light, airy, feeling that rides over a warm base that has a touch of spice. Very well blended. Although I’m posting late, this was a great way to start my day.

  Thursday, February 13, 2025: Atlas Shaves 2 - Day 13

  • Brush: Rad Dinosaur Creations “Stardust” - TurnNShave 26mm shoat
  • Razor: Yates Precision Manufacturing - 921-M
  • Blade: Gillette - Perma-Sharp (1)
  • Lather: Declaration Grooming - After the Rain
  • Post Shave: Declaration Grooming - After the Rain Aftershave splash
  • Post Shave: Ginger’s Garden - Unscented Aftershave balm (+ menthol)
  • Fragrance: Barrister and Mann - Fougère Aromatique EdT

  Easy lather with the DG bison base, though after almost a week of GEM shaves I felt like I had to work harder with the 921-M. Great results in the end though.

  I can tell I will get along well with this shoat knot. It’s still a little poky and needs breaking in, but it already felt great.

  +4 points for soap from the same artisan
  +1 point for cross-posting
  +1 point for engaging yesterday

  Total points (59 previous + 6): 65

  This might be the most ubiquitous selection by LatherBot yet, but I’m not complaining because getting points for using Y/R/P is always a good thing.

  YRP! Second soap match of these Atlas Shaves for me, and a favourite of mine for warmer weather. Today is a rainy winter day in the Lake Geneva area, but with YRP I’ll just pretend happily.
