Brush: Zenith - B21 boar
Razor: Gilette - Super Speed black tip
Blade: Personna - Lab Blue (2)
Lather: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two
Post: Ginger's Garden - unscented aftershave balm + menthol
Post: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two AS splash
Frag: Barrister and Mann - Roam Two EdT
I love Roam Two. That is all.
I am very curious to try the OG Roam, but I haven't seen it pop up on the zaar yet. Anyone want to trade a smush of Two for a smush of the OG? :)
Have a great one y'all. ✌️
- I killed my tub of OG Roam so can't send a smush, but I can tell you they're very different. Both are great, and I'm not sure if I have a favorite between the two of them.
  
  Not surprised that the OG was also great. I’ve yet to meet a BaM scent that I didn’t like.
- I have OG Roam in Soft Hearts. PM me (ideally on matrix) if you're still interested in a trade!
  
  Message sent (I think!)
Oct 22, 2024 - Tea Tuesday - Jasmine Retreat
Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts 28mm Declaration Grooming B13 Badger Knot
Razor: Aylsworth Razors Drakkant Ti
Blade: Gillette Platinum [5]
Lather: Noble Otter - 茉莉綠茶 (Jasmine Green Tea) - Soap
Post Shave: Catie's Bubbles - Retreat - Aftershave Lotion
- Great setup! Is JGT another great tea scent for shaving? Noble Otter already has TNeV; a tea scent that would be hard to top.
  
  The two scents are very different from each other, so not really a fair comparison. JGT is a great scent on its own. That said, if I had to choose only one to keep, it would be TNeV.

Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts Tabak Oridjinal, now with 28 mm Gelousy knot
Razor: Koraat Sparschweinchen (7/8", "Sheffield-style" full hollow, carbon steel)
Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original
Post Shave: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original
Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original
I love this Sparschweinchen, but today it made me really impatient about the Moarteen. Patience is difficult. 😅
- Oh! Great photo! Gave me the idea that the next sub exclusive should be a Tabac brush ( since Tabac is universally liked ;-) ), and a Tabac straight razor.
  
  I already have plans for a Stank Shank®, of course 😅
