  • Zingari Man - Bon Monsieur

    Bon Monsieur is a fragrance of pure nostalgia. Having grown up in the 1980s I wanted to create a fragrance that encapsulates my formative years and that pays homage to some of the great fougeres of the time. A hefty dose of a fine lavender absolute and oakmoss form the base of Bon Monsieur. This is indeed a classic gentlemen’s fragrance.

    Notes: Lavender, Bergamot, Fir Balsam, Geranium, Oakmoss, Carnation, Lily of the Valley, Cedar, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Musk

  • Duodi 12 NivΓ΄se an 233 de la RΓ©volution, jour de l'Argile


    Its duodi today, and we are still in the glorious year 233 of the Revolution. No reasons to make resolutions, or having a hang-over (which kind of slacker would drink a primidi evening in the first place?).

    Anyways, I'm officially declaring this lemmy open for 2025, and wish you all a happy new year.

    PS: I'll post the BVWSC thread once you have all sobered up.

    I managed to tighten slightly the Russian Bear - the blade is still not completely centered, but it is not a problem anymore. Good to be back home!

    Have a good night!

    As expected, I didn't get a brush for Xmas, so I continue with this one.

    Merry Christmas to you all!

  • I was kind of surprised that it was't Sir Benny's of London 🀣

  • Mine is Benny's of London, which adds a layer of sophistication that is otherwise not present in the brush

    I forgot to bring along a brush to my parent's place, so this one will have to do. A thoroughly mediocre shave.

    Have a good day!

    That's it for Plague; though I won't be able to end Famine this year.

    Have a good evening!

  • Imagine what it feels like after an additional 571 shaves on it

    Those young shavers and their lack of ambition! We deserve a 4-digit blade count!
