After a day at the beach....getting sunburnt, I needed a nice, enjoyable shave. One that wasn't going to be aggressive towards my skin. So, I opted for some truly amazing Fine Accoutrements Italian Citrus. I mean, what a great soap and scent.
Italian Citrus is a spot-on dupe of Acqua di Parma Colonia (1916) and in my opinion, is an outstanding fragrance! If you like citrus and/or colognes this is a must-have. It's basically the pinnacle of men's summer cologne.
I did a three-pass shave. The mildness of the Tech and the slickness of the soap meant the razor just glided across my face. There wasn't any possibility of irritation. It was a thing of beauty. Fine Accoutrements soaps are very slick!
I did my cold water rinse and longed for the matching Italian Citrus aftershave. It is "Italian summer" in a fragrance. But, that's not to say that Lucky Tiger aftershave isn't more than capable. It's a non-alcoholic, witch hazel splash that's orange-forward in scent but also has soothing, repairing, and hydrating ingredients like Aloe Vera, Calendula, and Chamomile. I rubbed some in and was good to go.
Alright, my friends. Thanks for reading, take care, and enjoy your shaves.
Prepare for mind control!
