Aftershave: Pinaud Citrus Musk EdC

Keeping with Fruity February I was excited to try some of The Holy Black Tangerine Creeper. This stuff is without a doubt top-notch software. The Tangerine essential oil in this stiff is added at low temps to ensure it doesn't off-gas into the atmosphere while they're making it. Tangerine hydrosol is also added instead of the water they typically use in their soaps.

I used a normal, moderate amount of soap but this stuff really blows up. No joke. A little goes a long way, so if you're considering picking some up keep in mind that you don't need much to get a full shave's worth of lather.

In case you didn't pick up on it, the "Creeper" in the name is for the added Koolada in the soap. It adds a nice cooling effect that as the name implies, creeps up on you. I enjoyed it even though the weather this time of year doesn't really call for it.

I started my shave with the W&B then finished up with the Drakkant. Both performed in superb fashion. I have no complaints.

After earning a bbs face I splashed on some Pinaud Citrus Musk EdC and called it a wrap.

Thanks for reading. Have a great Sunday and enjoy your shaves.
