11.12.2024 - Chypre on Wednesday
- Brush: AP Shave Co. black & clear handle w/ 30 mm Tuxedo Fan knot
- Razor: Leaf Thorn
- Blade: Derby Premium half DE
- Lather: Barrister & Mann - Le Grand Chypre
- Post-Shave: benecos 2in1 aftershave & face balm
-> 1 pass on the head and neck. Comfortable dome shave, one inexplicable weeper on the neck - maybe I was going too fast and reckless.
2 of 4 early shifts have already worn me down; LGC smells like cola to me, so I figured a little wake-up call would help. At least it's always a pleasure to shave with.
Half of the week is done, folks. Let's survive those remaining two days together!

Nice apple combo today, topped off with spicy Tabac Fire Power. The wedge could benefit from a few laps on the stones soon.

Primidi 21 Frimaire an 233 de la Révolution, jour d'Érable sucré
- Preshave: Proraso Green Preshave
- Brush: Semogue C3 Galahad Horse 🐎
- Razor: River Razors Kamisori
- Lather: Barrister & Mann Famine
- Postshave: Naissance 702 Witch Hazel
- Postshave: Stirling Electric Sheep Aftershave
- Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm
I don't smell much, so it's difficult to say something about Famine – it lacks the herb notes from Plague, but otherwise, it's the same base scent.
Have a good night!
