  May 30th, 2025: Sample Kill

  • Brush: Chisel & Hound - Cherry

  • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
  • Lather: Catie’s Bubbles - Mille Chypre - Soap
  • Post Shave: Catie’s Bubbles - Florentine Fern - Aftershave

  Killed the little Mille Chypre sample today. I’m always glad to try new scents, but Chypres are always just a little weird to my nose.

  I put the wrong Brut bottle in the picture, but I used the original frag, not the oceans splash.

  • Blade: Personna Twin Pivot Plus (Atra) Cart (8)
