  @snooting@sub.wetshaving.social inspired me in yesterday’s SOTD thread to reach for MdC Absinthe. Sweeter and more minty than actual absinthe’s scent it’s still a delightful fresh scent and made for a great shave with the W&B broadsword.

  The only thing I regret about purchasing Absinthe is that I went for the small tub. These are comically tiny and even with this small Boti synth brush, it feels like loading from a sample.

    Gorgeous razor! Looks like a cleaver next to the small tub :)

      Yeah, it’s pretty nice feeling, too! Just the toe is a challenge to hone for me. The edge has a strong smile there and requires extra care to get it as sharp as the main part of the edge.

      A challenge, but a fun one.

  Tub kill!

  This was the first tub of soap I ever bought, and honestly I'm glad to see it go. I really enjoyed the scent, but it increasingly gave me a bit of light frag burn as time went on.

  Have a great day!

  • Brush: Wolf Whiskers - "Gianmaria" w/Maggard 26mm Synthetic
  • Razor: Joseph Rogers & Sons Near Wedge (1)
  • Lather: Zingari Man - The Stargazer - Soap
  • Post Shave: Zingari Man - The Stargazer - Aftershave Serum

  Stargazer is a delicate scent. Combined with the soap being lightly scented, overall I'd say I didn't smell it much today!! There's something there, though, and I like it. In my experience with scents like this, my nose will learn what to look for in the future and it'll smell stronger as a result.

  My only experience with ZM is with an older base. This base was intuitive and worked well.

  I had high expectations for this fresh edge, but alas it just didn't feel the same as I once knew it. I've had shaves from this razor that made me crave it, but this was just average. I suppose I could hone it some more…

  2 passes. Bowl lather. Excellent shave.

  I was not able to participate in BVWSC last month due to a mail system mix-up, but @snooting@sub.wetshaving.social was able to get Susurro to me. We have delayed BVWSC for this month until next week so this gives me a chance to catch up.

  I am already familiar with the Darkwing base, and the lather was excellent. The spicy amber vibe that is given off by Susurro is right up my alley. I know this is a dupe of Replica Whispers in the Library, and I’ve never tried that, but Marilyn has a similar hushed, quiet feel to it as well. Very enjoyable shave today. I’m happy to have tried Susurro.
