“Mmmm, you taste like a spicy jelly bean!” My wife’s exact words after giving me a peck on the cheek as I stepped out the door. Thanks to Will for promoting domestic bliss.

My Blackland Sabre hasn’t seen much use. This is the original version of the razor, highly polished and lovely, but also heavy and bit unwieldy along the upper lip. It does, however, give a nice one-pass shave on the broad open areas, especially when I remember to ride the cap. A hearty dousing with Cat o’ Nine Tails bay rum aftershave barely sizzled before settling down into a warm and spicy coating. Unlike most bay rums, this one has some legs.

Phoenix Shaving - Pareidolia (Crown King)

Amazingly, I only get the Mysore... and I don't know how he did it at that price. Creamy and woody. Very real, I would not expect a fragrance oil to be so true. But it must have been, for the price.

Scent Profile: Mysore Sandalwood, Sage/Patchouli Hydrosol, Oakwood Absolute, Benzoin Resin, Hedione & Artemisia Essential Oil (Wormwood).

Solhaven by Aion.  Starts with tons of flowers, settles to sweet citrus.  A few drops of Ethos Ice makes for a super refreshing shave
