SOTD 1-7 April 2018

April 3, 2018 - Tuesday

Prep: Shower, Stirling Iced Coffee
Brush: Majesto Shaving - 30mm Silvertip Fan
Razor: Antique Bronze Wolfman WR1-DC(0.74) on WRH-2
Blade: Polsilver SI (5)
Lather: Southern Witchcrafts - AA
Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Santal Auster - Aftershave
Fragrance: Chatillon Lux - Santal Auster (Parfum Extrait) - Parfum

Finally got around to trying Southern Witchcrafts and I was pleasantly surprised by the performance of the soap. Provided a slick and protective lather, that resulted in a great shave. Love this scent on this one(not released yet). Grabbed some Santal Auster as it seemed to provide a great pairing.

I was wrong.
The last time I tried Roam it was from the first run years ago. I'm embarrassed to admit that I traded it after only using it once. Since then, I've wondered if I was too hasty, and today I found out I did dismiss this scent too soon. When the tub came, the first whiff seemed harsh, almost acrid. I put it away to warm up from the cold and when I opened it this morning, the scent was different - leather, earth, and smoke, no acridity this time. I built the lather on my face and really warmed up to it - it didn't seem harsh at all, just manly, outdoorsy and not overpowering. I paired it with Chatillon Lux Bon Vivant, and it proved to be a good one. I won't be so hasty now.
